I am forever creating and recreating the best chocolate chip cookies in the world. I will come up with a recipe and everyone we know will love it and I'll be content for a few months and then I'll start to "dibble" with it a bit and improve it even more. This is what this recipe is except I do not see any way to improve it. I think I have finally achieved the PERFECT chocolate chip cookie (at least for my family and friends). This cookie is the perfect degree of softness and has plenty of chocolate chips in it.
Preheat your oven to 375. In a large bowl, beat together the shortening and butter. Mix in the sugars, salt and baking soda until just combined. Now add in the eggs and vanilla and mix well. Stir in all other ingredients except for the chocolate chips. Once the dough is mixed well, fold in the chocolate chips. You can use just one bag of chocolate chips but mixing the two kinds of chips really does make a huge difference on the taste.
Spray your cookie sheet(s) with cooking spray and then drop the dough by spoonfuls onto the pan.
Bake for 8 1/2 minutes. Allow the cookies to cool for 2-3 minutes before removing from the pan. The cookies may look pale and underdone when you remove them but will finish cooking the last little bit needed on the pan.
