MOTHER'S CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugars. Add pudding mix, eggs and vanilla. Combine flour and baking soda; add to creamed mixture and mix well. Fold in chocolate chips.

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375°.
• In a metal bowl, cream together the sugars and shortening using a wooden spoon.
• Add in the salt, soda, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until smooth.
• Add in the chocolate chips (or preferred mix-ins), and incorporate.
• Add the flour one cup at a time until your dough releases from the sides of the bowl, and starts to form a ball. Don't add too much flour; you may not need to full three cups. Add flour until the dough is wet to the touch, sticking together, but when you touch it with your finger it is not sticky.
• Using a portion scoop about 2 tbsp in size, portion out the cookies 12 to a standard size baking sheet. 3 to a row, 4 to a column.
• Bake for 8-11 minutes, or until they're a little golden.
• Cool and store in an airtight container for up to a week.
