1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup white sugar
2 1/2 cups flour
1-2 eggs (depending on where you live)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
6-8 oz chocolate chips
Mix everything but the chocolate chips together until well blended. Traditionally this is done by hand, because I only recently got a good mixer, but I have been known to use a mixer. We sometimes use 1 egg, and sometimes 2 eggs, depending on how fluffy we want them. If you live in a moist climate, you might need to reduce the butter/shortening quantity a bit and increase the flour a bit so the cookies don't fall flat in the oven. Finally, stir in the chocolate chips, and roll small balls of dough to put on a baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes at 350 degrees. Eat. Enjoy. Served best with milk.
