- 2 cups (248g) all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¾ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ cup (48g) vegetable shortening (Crisco)
- ¼ cup (57g) unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup (100g) packed brown sugar
- ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons (30mL) milk
- 1 cup (170g) mini chocolate chips
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper or silpat baking mats.
Whisk flour, salt, and baking soda in a small bowl and set aside.
Cream butter, shortening, and sugars together in an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment.
Beat in egg, vanilla, and milk, then mix in flour mixture until cookie dough forms. Stir in chocolate chips.
Scoop 1-tablespoon balls of dough and place onto cookie sheets. Press the dough lightly with the palm of your hand to flatten just a bit. Bake for about 11-15 minutes, until the cookies are slightly browned. (Shorter bake time for softer, longer for crunchier.)
Cool 5 minutes on cookie sheet before removing to rack to cool completely. They will get crunchier as they cool.
