[Ascherit]

So yeah, post what you think is the best darn cookie recipe ever -- doesn't matter what kind~ I feel like making some cookies sometime this week, heh.

I know. Of course I'm posting in this thread. `-`

Ingredients:
1/2 C sugar
1/2 C packed brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/3 C butter, softened
1/3 C vegetable shortening
1 1/2 Cup of All-Purpose Flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1 package chocolate chips

Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, and line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
2) Mix first 6 ingredients in a bowl until there is no visible clumps.
3) In a separate bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly distributed.
4) Mix the dry ingredients with the wet ingredients until totally mixed.
5) Fold chocolate chips into the mix
6) Using a cookie-scooper (or just balling the dough together), arrange cookie dough on baking sheet
7) Bake for 8-10 minutes
8) Let cookies cool down (will still look white; they will look more like cookies as they rest)
9) Enjoy.




Totally going off of memory on the list. My apologizes if I missed something, or screwed a measurement. ;x



If you don't like the use of shortening (I know people think it's disgusting), here's another recipe:

Ingredients:
* 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
* 3/4 cup packed dark brown sugar
* 3/4 cup sugar
* 2 large eggs
* 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
* 1 (12-ounce) bag semisweet chocolate chips, or chunks
* 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
* 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
* 1 teaspoon fine salt

Directions:
Evenly position 2 racks in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. (on convection setting if you have it.) Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone sheets. (If you only have 1 baking sheet, let it cool completely between batches.)

Put the butter in a microwave safe bowl, cover and microwave on medium power until melted. (Alternatively melt in a small saucepan.) Cool slightly. Whisk the sugars, eggs, butter and vanilla in a large bowl until smooth.

Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in another bowl. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients with a wooden spoon; take care not to over mix. Stir in the chocolate chips or chunks.

Scoop heaping tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared pans. Wet hands slightly and roll the dough into balls. Space the cookies about 2-inches apart on the pans. Bake, until golden, but still soft in the center, 12 to 16 minutes, depending on how chewy or crunchy you like your cookies. Transfer hot cookies with a spatula to a rack to cool. Serve.

Store cookies in a tightly sealed container for up to 5 days.
