chocolate chip Cookie

• 1/3 cup shortening (use the sticks)
• 1/3 cup butter
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 1 egg
• 1 tsp vanilla

Beat on medium speed in mixer for at least three mins until light and fluffy

Add 1-2 cups chocolate chips (my very favorite are Guittard, but Ghirardelli works too)

Mix into dough

In a separate bowl, combine

• 1 1/2 cups flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt

Mix into the dough until just combined.

For best results, refrigerate for a bit until dough is cold and stiff.

Cook at 350ºF for 10 mins, or until just lightly browned on top.

These are amazing fresh out of the oven, saved for later, or frozen and eaten straight out of the freezer.
