Kaye's Chocolate Chip Cookies
List of Ingredients
Kaye is my friend Maggie's daughter. Maggie says she has never had good luck with chocolate chip recipes--I haven't either. Everyone else seems to get nicely formed cookies. Mine spread out like pancake batter. Maggie brought these one day and they are delicious as well as attractive. I will try them before we next visit the kids.
Kaye's Chocolate Chip Cookies
1 cup +2 tablespoons self rising flour
1/2 teaspoon soda
1/2 cup Crisco
6 tablespoons granulated sugar
6 tablespoons light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 egg
6 ounces chocolate chops
(Maggie says: I added about 1/2 cup toasted pecans...she [Kaye] doesn't put in nuts.)
Recipe
Cream the Crisco and sugar together; add egg and vanilla , then dry ingredients. Then add chips and nuts , if using. Drop by tablespoons on ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 375 for 9 minutes. Do not overbake. A little less might be best for your oven
Maggie also noted that this is a small recipe. She says she gets tired of making cookies. Me, too, but the way we inhaled these makes me think I'll have to at least double the recipe.
