The response for Cookie of the Week has been overwhelming and I would like to thank everyone who has sent a recipe. They all will be shared : ). Thanks again Donna ! I can hardly wait to make these delicious cookies : )

What you need:

  • (makes small double batch)
  • 1 1/2 c. of Butter flavored Crisco
  • 2 1/2 c. firmly packed brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp. of vanilla (pure or artificial, doesn't matter)
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 1/2 c. of flour
  • 2 tsp. of salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
  • 3 c. (or one lg. bag) of semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 4 tbsp. of milk (whole or 2% works best)
  • Add nuts if you wish
    about 1 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.

What you do:

  1. Preheat oven to 375. Cream Crisco, brown sugar, vanilla, & eggs in bowl. Mix in dry ingred. & add chocolate chips. Using a teaspoon, drop cookie dough onto an ungreased baking sheet, spaced about 1 inch apart.
  2. Bake for 8-10 mins. *Very important: Done when center looks a little mushy. This makes them be chewy & soft.

You can also add baking cocoa to mix if you want a fudgy cookie.
Enjoy & happy baking!!

Jumbo Chocolate Chip Cookies
This recipe is from Debra Shaughnessy, who says, "We live in Knoxville Tennessee and I'm a stay at home mom.  In the winter time we love to bake cookies and one of our favorites is Jumbo Chocolate chip Cookies, it has peanut butter in them which is a grand treat for my family!  I hope you enjoy them as much as we do!"
