Friday Recipe...on Saturday

I had Mason yesterday and Brad and I decided to go out last night so I haven't had a chance to post a recipe until now.

Best Chocolate Chip Cookies

Cream together:
2 c. Crisco
1 1/2 c. brown sugar (packed)
1 1/2 c. sugar

Add to above:
4 eggs
2 tsp vanilla

Add to above:
2 tsp salt
2 tsp baking soda
5 c. flour (I don't always put this much. I just add until it doesn't stick to my finger)

Add desired amount of chocolate chips

Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes. I usually cook them for 8 or 9, I like them soft and chewy.

In my opinion, these are slightly better than the cookie recipe I got from one of Brad's friends. Sorry Stacey. They make a lot but they are delicious.

I love that you think they are better than Stacey's cookies. I don't know why, but I got a big kick out of that.

Maybe they taste better to me because Brad can't tell everyone that I use his ex-girlfriend's recipe :)

Ha! I forgot that they dated briefly. I swear, between the two of them they have collectively dated everyone I knew in high school.

With 2 cups of shortning? Yikes!

I love chocolate chip cookies! Really, shortening and not butter?

For reals, just shortening.
