In large bowl, mix together flour, baking soda, and salt.

In separate large bowl, mix all other ingredients except chocolate chips.

Gradually add flour mixture to wet ingredients, mixing well, until well blended.

Mix in chocolate chips.

Drop spoonfuls of batter onto greased cookie sheet and cook 9-11 minutes at 375 degrees or until bottoms are browned, rotating cookie sheets halfway through.

Let cookies cool on the sheet for a couple of minutes, then remove to rack to cool the rest of the way.
