Ok. . . so I might be letting out a big family secret be telling this recipe. Oh well. . . the ancestors will forgive me. Here's mine. . .

Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit

Mix together

3/4 cup Brown Sugar
3/4 cup Sugar

then add

1 cup Crisco

blend with that

2 eggs

add 1 tsp vanilla extract

In a seperate bowl mix. . .

2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 - 1 tsp salt

Gradually add this to the other mixture.

Add chocolate chips. My dad prefers 1/2 cup of chips, my bestfriend likes a ton of chips, whatever toots your boat and floats your horn!!!

Bake at 350 for 10 - 15 minutes until done. Eat warm, that's when they are the best, and with a tall glass of milk!!!
