Chocolate Chip lovers beware! These irresistible cookies are my own recipe, and they are nice and thick, soft and chewy, and absolutely hard to resist!
Step: 1
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Step: 2
In a large bowl, cream together the shortening, butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Stir in the pecans and chocolate chips. Use a measuring tablespoon to round dough into balls. Don’t roll the balls, just make them rounded. Place onto ungreased baking sheets.
Step: 3
Bake 10 to 12 minutes in the preheated oven, or until centers are set and very lightly browned. Don’t overbake. Cool 2 to 3 minutes before removing from baking sheets. Make sure you have lots of ice cold milk!!!
