• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda

• 12 ounce package chocolate chips {about 2 cups}

Preheat oven to 350º.

In a small bowl stir together the flour, baking soda and salt.

In a large bowl beat together the butter and sugars together until fluffy. Add the corn syrup, egg and vanilla, beating well.

Gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, beating until well blended. Stir in the chocolate chips . Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets.
