The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
The Best Chocolate Chip Cookies
These cookies are the best chocolate chip cookies you will ever make. They always get rave reviews wherever I take them. I hope you enjoy them as much as my family and friends do.
Ingredients
- 2/3 cup Crisco shortening
- 2 sticks of real butter (salted)
- Eggs-2
- Granulated sugar-1 cup
- Light brown sugar-1 cup
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3 1/2 cups bread flour (all-purpose flour is fine also)
- 12 oz. bag of Nestle semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
- Mix together thoroughly the sugar, brown sugar, Crisco, butter, eggs, vanilla, salt and baking soda
- Add flour and mix thoroughly
- Pick up a bit of dough. If it is very tacky, add more flour. It should come off of your fingers easily
- Stir in chocolate chips
- Drop by hand to a cookie sheet in desired size, spacing 1-2 inches apart
- Bake at 375 degrees until the peaks are golden and they no longer appear gooey in the center (don’t let them get too golden)
- Allow the cookies to cool for a few minutes on the cookie sheet to allow for residual baking to occur
- Transfer the cookies to a cooling rack to continue to cool completely
Enjoy!!!
