Note

For Toll House Pan Cookies: Spread dough evenly into a greased 15 1/2" x 10 1/2" baking pan. Bake at 375ðF for 20-25 minutes until golden brown. Cool completely, then cut into 2-inch squares. Makes about 3 dozen cookies.

For Refrigerator Cookies: Divide dough in half and wrap each half in waxed paper. Refrigerate until firm (about 1 hour). Shape each half into a 15-inch log, wrap in waxed paper, and refrigerate for 30 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch rounds and bake at 375ðF for 8-10 minutes. Dough may be stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or freezer for up to 8 weeks if wrapped in foil or freezer paper.

For best results, use room-temperature eggs and softened butter for a smooth, creamy batter. Do not overmix the flour into the wet ingredients to avoid tough cookies.
