Chocolate Chip Cookies

I know everyone loves good old fashioned chocolate chip cookies and these are SOOOO good! Another recipe I found off AllRecipes.com when I didn't buy the Nestle's chocolate chips with the recipe printed on the back of the bag. Paired with a nice glass of ice cold milk... it's hard to beat!Ingredients:

2/3 c butter flavored shortening

2/3 c butter, softened

1 cup white sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

1 Tbsp vanilla (yes, tablespoon)

3 1/2 c all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

1 cup chopped pecans (optional)

2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Mix thoroughly the shortening, butter, sugars, eggs, and vanilla.

Stir in remaining ingredients.

Place on cookie sheet by rounded tablespoon scoops. Bake 10-12 minutes, or until centers are set and very light brown. Cool 2-3 minutes before removing from baking sheet. Enjoy!
