HORRIBLE, DISGUSTING RECIPE. THE COOKIES WERE THE WORST EVER. DO NOT TRY THIS RECIPE!!!!!!!!!! I AM ANGRY THAT I WASTED ALL THE INGREDIENTS FOR IT.
Hi Sandy! Delicious choc chip cookies. Very soft, and very yummy! I'm only 15 and a first time 'from scratch' cook, so considering that it did take me awhile to make everything. Instead of shortening I used butter, which gave a great flavour. Note: To anyone that substitutes butter for shortening - leave it out for 1-2 hours! I made the mistake of leaving it out for 15 mins, and it took me ages to mix the sugar and butter. Lol. Overall though, the turnout was fantastic; everyone in the family loved it! Thanks for a great recipe.
This was really really yummy!! It was very soft, but still held it's shape. I hate when cookies flatten out while cooking. This cookie held up wonderfully, and my 4 children "LOVED" them. This is one I will make over and over. THANK YOU
Very easy to make. Finally, a really good, soft chocolate chip cookie.
These are ok. They are definitely soft cookies but they are also very dry. I have tasted better. They did not spread out very well and stayed small. If you like cookies with a texture more like cake then you will probably like these.
These cookies turned out differently than I expected. I thought they would be more cake-like. However my entire family loved them! I used butter-flavored shortening. I also rolled the dough into balls then very slightly flattened them before baking. The cookies looked beautiful! They browned nicely but were still very soft. They looked like beautiful bakery cookies but tasted much better! My six-year old daughter asked for this recipe to be added to the cookbook we are making for her. It is definitely a "keeper" recipe!
Yuck! I give credit for the fact that they are indeed chewy. They have no flavor except that of shortening. I'll stick with my tried and true!
Wow. My roomate is a "cookie junkie". She is very picky with her food, especially her favorite kind-cookies. For her birthday, I baked these award winning cookies and by the next day they were finished! Her appetite is usually small but she devoured these treats. They truly are award winning.
Because this recipe does not call for any white sugar the cookies come out rather bland. It really isn't sweet at all even with the vanilla and chocolate chips. The walnuts give it an extra crunch but there isn't much to this cookie.
