Keith of Sherwood's Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is the best chocolate chip cookie recipe. And as Keith is the only Sherwoodian who doesn't have a recipe, the Sirens decided to name it after him because he just loves these cookies.

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks, 1/2 pound) butter, softened
3/4 cup granulated [white] sugar
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons milk
2 eggs
3 cups Nestle Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Morsels

Combine flour, baking soda and salt in small bowl. In a large bowl, beat butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition; gradually beat in flour mixture, add milk and stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded tablespoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

BAKE in preheated 375-degree oven for 9 to 11 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 1 to 2 minutes; remove to wire racks and cool.
