Equipment

  • stand mixer with paddle attachment

  • or regular baking sheet

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup salted butter
  • 1/2 cup vegetable shortening
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 1/3 cups + 1 tbsp of all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 3/4 tsp salt
  • 2 1/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  •  In a stand mixer, using the paddle attachment, beat butter and shortening until combined. (use a spatula to clean down the sides)
  • Add granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla and beat
  • Add eggs, one at a time, and beat until light and creamy
  • Add flour, baking soda and salt and beat until combined
  • Stir in chocolate chips
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes for a chewy, gooey cookie, bottoms should be just starting to turn a very light brown. (I like to slightly under-bake)
  • Cool on baking sheet for 1-2 minutes (until cookie sets) and then move onto wire racks to cool completely
  • Better eat fast before they are gone!
