Okay enough with the experiments.
Tried, tested, and true.
Everyone needs a good chocolate chip recipe to fall back on. There are so many variations (the biggest basic difference lies in whether you use butter or shortening)... but once you find a good one, whipping a batch up is a reliable treat.
A little secret: our secret recipe is printed on the back of "Chipits" chocolate chip bags everywhere. We've been using it for years... we have it cut out and pasted into the recipe book just in case Hershey stops printing it... but for now it's always easy to find!
1 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
Mix!
2 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
Mix!
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
Mix!
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (Chipits, obviously...!)
Stir!
- These are "drop cookies" - so all you have to do is drop by spoonfuls onto a cookie sheet
- Make sure you leave a little room between cookies, because they'll spread out a little bit
- Bake at 375 F for about 10 minutes
