This is a recipe for a huge batch of delicious chocolate chip cookies. The original version of this recipe said it made 4-5 dozen 2" cookies. The one we make is 5 times the size of the original recipe. I bake the amount we want and then freeze the dough for the next time we want some fresh cookies. You can either scoop the dough into cookie balls and freeze on a cookie sheet or roll into logs before freezing. When you are ready, remove the cookies and thaw to room temperature, bake as directed.
2 sticks butter
1 1/3 c. shortening
2 1/2 c. sugar
2 1/2 c. brown sugar
5 eggs
1 1/2 T. vanilla
7 1/2 c. flour
2 1/2 t. soda
2 1/2 t. salt
6 c. chocolate chips (use as many as your family likes)
Mix softened butter and shortening. Add sugar, brown sugar and cream with butter mixture. Blend in eggs and vanilla. Add flour, soda and salt. Finish off this cookie dough with your chocolate chips. Bake at 375 for about 8-10 minutes. Let rest on warm cookie sheet for a minute or two. Serve warm and enjoy!
If you would like to change things up a bit try using m&m's, nuts or raisins...be creative and have fun!
