Ingredients

• 1 cup Crisco shortening
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 2 Eggs
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 2 cups Chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the Crisco shortening, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Beat using an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to form the cookie dough.

Step 6

Fold in the chocolate chips evenly throughout the dough.

Step 7

Use a tablespoon to scoop the dough and drop rounded spoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly soft, but they will firm up as they cool.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
