Chocolate Chip Cookies

These are the chocolate chip cookies my roommate in college made to attract all the young men to our apartment.  They are so divine ... even if they are simple.

CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

What you need:
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 tsp. vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
3 cups flour
1 pkg. milk chocolate chips

How you do it:
Cream together sugars, butter, and shortening.  Add vanilla (I sometimes add extra vanilla, depending on my mood) and eggs.  Blend well.  In medium-sized bowl, stir together rest of ingredients.  Mix the flour mixure into the sugar mixture.  Fold in chocolate chips.  Roll into 2-inch balls and place on greased cookie sheet.  Bake at 350° for 9-13 minutes.
