- 2 1/4 cups unsifted all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter flavored Crisco
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup white sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Mix flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.
Cream Crisco, brown and white sugars and vanilla with a mixer until light and fluffy and sugars are incorporated.
Add eggs one at a time; mixing until blended.
Gradually add flour mixture, mixing only until blended. Do not over mix.
Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by rounded spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet.
Bake in a preheated 375 degree oven for 9 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges and starting to crack in the center.
Let cool on pan for 5 minutes; remove to cooling rack.
- Use 1 stick of Butter Flavored Crisco or one cup if you're using it from the jar.
- I use a whole 12 ounce bag of chocolate chips.
- Do not over mix the batter once you've started adding the flour mixture. Barely mix!
- For the perfect size and shape cookie, use a cookie scoop like this one.
