This is my favorite recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Everyone loves them & they are quickly gone when I bake them! The secret is I use the Crisco butter sticks & they turn out right & delicious every time ! Also watch them because they cook faster than the recipe says. When you see a light golden brown around the bottom, take them out. I also add a lot more chocolate chips than it calls for to make it extra chocolaty!

Enjoy & Have a great day!
