Ingredients:
4 cup All-Purpose Flour 1 tsp Baking soda (level) 2 tsp Salt (level) 1 cup Light Brown Sugar (packed) 1 cup Granulated Sugar
1 1/2 cup Vegetable Shortening (Crisco) 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract 1 large Egg White 2-4 tbsp Water (warm) 12 oz Mini Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
Cooking
Instructions:
Bring all ingredients to room temperature. Preheat oven to 325 ?F. Mix the flour and baking soda in a bowl and set aside. Use an electric mixer to mix the two sugars and shortening. When creamy add the vanilla, salt, and egg white. Add the flour 1/2 cup at a time adding a tablespoon of warm water as necessary to mix the flour - don't exceed 4 tablespoons of water - this will make a firm dough. Mix in chocolate chips. As the dough gets thicker you may want to mix by hand and abandon the electric mixer. Roll into 2 inch balls and press down with the palm of the hand to make flat. Bake 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
