*Note- I add in less chips because I do not like a lot of chocolate chips.
-
13
The cookie dough tastes so good you do not need a lot of chips.
-
14
I always use butter because I think it makes a better cookie.
-
15
I also use butter flavor crisco instead of plain shortening.

16
(These are comfort food remember..no low fat lol).

17
Sometimes if the dough feels a little sticky I add in extra flour (not too much) till it's easier to roll in your hands.

18
I bake them on the reverse side of the cookie sheets and it works very well to make a nice chewy cookie.
-
19
Do not let them overcook, as soon as the edges start to look brown, even if the center isn't set, they will be fine once they are cooled.
-
20
Leave them on the cookie sheet for a minute or possibly two and then cold completely on wire racks.

I do not know how she ever figured which out because they have never lasted longer than two days around here!
