Love my wonderful new family! What did you all do for Easter?

Chocolate Chip Cookies… & A Little bit of Christmas

At the bridal shower my mother-in-law had for me, she had everyone bring their favorite recipe. I absolutely LOVE having a recipe box full to the brim with delicious recipes!

I had a real hankerin’ for some cookies last week, so I pulled out my box and saw one that caught my eye, “My Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies” from Aunt Linda. It calls for butter & shortening! The less healthy, the better they must taste! Am I right?!

Ingredients:

2/3 c Butter (Soft)                            1 tsp Baking Soda

2/3 c Shortening                               1 tsp Salt

1 c Sugar                                          1 12oz Package Chocolate Chips

1 c Brown Sugar

2 Eggs

2 tsp Vanilla

3 1/2 c Flour

 

- Preheat oven to 375^.

- Stir ingredients together- Add as listed *DO NOT USE MIXER*

Here’s how mine turned out!

 

Mmmmm…

 

P.s. Here’s a little peek at my Christmas!
