Sally Ayotte'S South Pole Chocolate Chip Cookies (Antarctica) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup chocolate chips
2/3 cup white chocolate chips
2/3 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup nuts, chopped (I used peanuts and cashews)

Preparation

First, cream the butter and the two kinds of sugar:
Now add the eggs and the vanilla.
In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt. Then add to the sugar/butter/egg mixture and blend until a soft dough forms.
Add the chips and the chopped nuts.
Drop the dough by teaspoons onto a baking sheet, about two inches apart. The recipe doesn't say to grease the baking sheet, but my cookies stuck pretty badly so I would definitely put a little butter on the pan next time I make these.
Bake at 375 degrees for 12 to 14 minutes, or until the bottom edges are lightly browned.
