Chocolate Chip Cookies

I always just use the recipe on the back of the chocolate chip package. Hmmmm.. maybe I should try another way. This one comes from Laura on real mom kitchen.

2/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup butter (or you can use margarine)
1 cup sugar
1 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp. vanilla
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1 bag chocolate chips

Cream butter, shortening, and sugars together. Add eggs and vanilla and mix well. Add soda, salt, and flour and mix until combined. Stir in chocolate chips. Bake at 375 on an ungreased cookie sheet. Makes about 4 dozen cookies
