This chocolate chip cookie recipe was given to me years ago by my good friend, Amber. We already have a couple of chocolate chip cookie recipes on here, but this one is a little different than the others. This one is a smaller batch size--really the perfect batch size. My other two recipes are huge. This recipe is easy to whip up, and delicious, and also calls for an entire bag of chocolate chips! With that much chocolaty goodness in there, you really can't go wrong! Chocolate Chip Cookies by: Amber Severts 2/3 c. butter (room temperature) 2/3 c. shortening 1 c. brown sugar (I always use a little less sugar than it calls for) 1 c. white sugar 2 tsp. vanilla 2 eggs 3 c. flour 1 tsp. baking soda 1 tsp. salt 1 package chocolate chips Preheat your oven to 375 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, brown sugar and white sugar. Add the vanilla and eggs and mix it well. Add the flour, baking soda and salt and stir it to combine. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop them by teaspoonful onto an ungreased baking sheet. Bake them for 8-10 minutes, or until they just start to brown.
