Brown Sugar Chocolate Chip Cookies

This is my beloved, go-to chocolate chip cookie recipe. Growing up, I loved making chocolate chip cookies, so it's become kind of a nostalgic thing. My family is a little obsessed with chocolate chip cookies. My dad actually throws out parts of the cookie that don't have any chocolate to offer.
 
 
I started using this recipe that I got from one of my sisters a few years ago and it's my favorite. There's no white sugar, only brown sugar. I've adapted it along the way, so here's the recipe:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine:
 
1/2 cup unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
2 Tbsp milk
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 egg

Mix well. Add:

1 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp salt
3/4 tsp baking soda

Mix well. Add 1 1/4 cups chocolate chips (I prefer semi sweet. Or, if I'm feeling fancy, 60% dark). Try not to eat too much of the dough.

Bake on a greased cookie sheet for 8-10 minutes. They are best right out of the oven of course. Enjoy!
