Best Ever Chocolate Chip Cookies I

3 cups margarine, softened

2 ½ cups white sugar

2 ½ cups packed brown sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

4 eggs

8 cups all-purpose flour

4 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

4 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

In a large bowl, cream together margarine, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. In a separate bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, and salt. Add to egg mixture, and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips. Instead of just dropping them onto the cookie sheet, I roll the cookies into balls - it makes them all look very uniform and nice!

Bake in preheated oven for 12 to15 minutes, or until light brown. Cool on a wire rack.
