Chocolate Chip Cookies II

Ingredients:
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup shortening
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips



Beat butter and shortening at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy; gradually add sugars, beating well. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well.

Combine flour, soda and salt; add to butter mixture, mixing well. Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop dough by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 for 9-11 minutes. Cool cookies slightly on baking sheets, remove to wire racks to cool.


What I did differently from the recipe:
I halved it, but other than that I didn't change anything.

What I'll do differently next time:
Nothing.

Verdict:
Thumbs up! These are sooo yummy and not too sweet which means me and my sensitive teeth can have several! The thing I loved about these is everything came from the pantry. I had a craving and could make them immediately!
