Directions

Serving Size: about 36 cookies

  • Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC).
  • Beat brown sugar and shortening together in a large bowl using an electric mixer until light and creamy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, salt and baking soda in a separate large bowl. Incorporate into creamed mixture.
  • Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet about 3 in (7 cm) apart.
  • Bake one baking sheet at a time in preheated oven for 8 to 10 minutes for chewy cookies, 11 to 13 minutes for crisp cookies. Be careful not to overbake. Let cool for 2 minutes on baking sheet, then place on rack to cool completely.
