Preheat oven to 350°F

Mix all ingredients (except flour and chocolate chips) together until creamy. It is okay if there are little lumps of margarine.

Add in flour

Add in chips

On an ungreased cookie sheet, place scoops of dough about 2" apart. Size of scoops will effect size of cookie. We use a teaspoon (not the measuring kind, but the eating kind)

Bake cookies for 8-12 minutes, until lightly browned.

If you want to make brownies, add dough to square brownie pan and bake for 25 minutes.

Let cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet, then remove when they seem set. Place on rack until fully cooled.
