This is a copycat recipe. Ingredients:
4 cups all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon baking soda (level) |
2 teaspoons salt (level) |
1 cup light brown sugar (packed) |
1 cup granulated sugar |
1 1/2 cups vegetable shortening (crisco) |
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 large egg white |
2 tablespoons warm water (to 4) |
12 ounces semisweet mini chocolate chips |
Directions:
1. Bring all ingredients to room temperature. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Mix the flour and baking soda in a bowl and set aside.
2. Use an electric mixer to mix the two sugars and shortening. When creamy add the vanilla, salt, and egg white.
3. Add the flour 1/2 cup at a time adding a tablespoon of warm water as necessary to mix the flour - don't exceed 4 tablespoons of water - this will make a firm dough.
4. Mix in chocolate chips. As the dough gets thicker you may want to mix by hand and abandon the electric mixer.
5. Roll into 2-inch balls and press down with the palm of the hand to make flat. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
