Most Requested Recipe: Chocolate Chip Cookies

Is there anything better than a yummy chocolate chip cookies?  This is the recipe I receive the most requested for.  I don't know if that is because I make them so much, or because they are simply delicious!

Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 Cup butter shortening
1 cup sugar

1 cup brown sugar

1 tsp. salt

1/4 cup milk

2 eggs

1 tsp. vanilla
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
2 cups milk chocolate chips

Mix shortening, sugars, and eggs.  Add the rest of the ingredients.  Make cookie dough into balls and place on cookie sheet.  Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

Tips and Tricks

*The dough is amazing.  Eat it up!

*Using your hands to roll the dough into balls gives them a smoother, more plump look.

*Let your cookies sit on the cookies sheet for 2 minutes after you get them out of the oven, then quickly remove them to a baking sheet.
*if your cookies are going flat, use Lehi Roller Mills Flour.  (I get mine at Costco!) and try using fresh baking soda!
*I take my cookies out of the oven when they are getting just a touch of brown on the top.  Super soft and yummy!

*To take your cookies from yummy to AMAZING, try dipping half the cookie in melted chocolate almond bark, and then drizzle with melted white chocolate.
