Cream:
1/4 c crisco
3/4 c butter, NOT margarine
Add:
1/2 c sugar
1 c brown sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla, yes Tbsp not tsp
Add:
2 eggs
Beat well.
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 1/2 c flour (plus 2-4 Tbsp if too soft)
Add:
1 - 1 1/2 c chocolate chips, chopped (I pulse in mini
processor)
Refrigerate if dough is too sticky to work with (humidity
makes it wet).
Roll dough into 1 1/2 inch balls.
I use a med. size ice cream scoop for drop cookies,
but found these to look & taste better when rolled. It
sounds nuts, but it's true.
Bake @ 375, 11-13 minutes, depends on size
If the tops look wet, leave in oven.
Let cookies set for 4 minutes before removing.
Cookies will continue to bake/ set as they sit on sheet.

Tips for transforming into ice
cream sandwiches. Put cookies in
freezer until firm. If you don't
freeze them 1st, they may break in
the next step. Put a scoop of
softened icecream on the bottom
of one cookie. Put another cookie
on top & smoosh it flat- excess
icecream may ooze out. Use a
spoon/ knife to smooth edges.
Roll in sprinkles if desired. Put
back in freezer to firm up-
otherwise when you bite into it, the
icecream will smoosh out.

From the kitchen of Stephanie Knewasser. This is the
most common cookie there is, yet I had a hard time
finding a recipe I liked. I've tried several recipes &
played with the ingredients/ amounts. I've finally
created a cookie that is thick, yet soft, and has the
flavor you'd expect.
