Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2/3 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine {softened}
  • 1/4 cup shortening {I prefer butter flavored}
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 12 oz. chocolate chips {I prefer mini chocolate chips}

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°.
  • In a large bowl, beat granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, shortening, vanilla and egg with a spoon {or electric mixer}. Add in flour, baking soda and salt, combine but do not over mix. Stir in chocolate chips.
  • Using a medium cookie scoop, scoop mounds of dough onto a silicone {or parchment} lined baking sheet.
  • Bake for 10-13 minutes or until a light brown color {do not over bake}. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the cookie sheet for 10 minutes, then move them to a cooling rack to cool completely.
