My friend Kerri made these cookies the other day while the kids and I were at her house. They were DELICIOUS! I think the recipe is really interesting - no butter or white sugar are used...although shortening and brown sugar are in abundance!
3/4 cup butter flavored shortening
1 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon real vanilla
1 3/4 cups all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup chocolate chips
1 egg
Heat oven to 375. Combine shortening, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large mixing bowl. Beat at medium speed until well blended. Beat in egg. Combine flour, salt and baking soda. Mix into creamed mixture until blended. Stir in chocolate chips. Line the pan with parchment paper. Drop dough by teaspoon full, 3 inches apart onto cookie sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes for chewy cookies or 11-13 minutes for crisp cookies. DO NOT OVERBAKE. Makes about 3 dozen.
It works best when you make small cookies.
