When I was in high school, I cleaned Betty's house to earn extra money. Betty made these awesome cookies that are still my favorite all these years later. The original recipe called for a brand of shortening called Fluffo. I don't think that brand is made any more, but using the butter-flavored Crisco provides a good substitute.
Ingredients:
1 cup butter flavor crisco
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla
6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, cream together the Crisco, sugars, eggs and vanilla.
2. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking soda and salt.
3. Mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until well-mixed.
4. Mix in chocolate chips.
5. Drop by rounded tablespoons into ungreased cookie sheet and bake at 375F for 10-12 minutes.
