Dennis' Chocolate Chip Cookies

Those of you who have not experienced my father-in-laws chocolate chip cookies are really missing out. Here is his secret recipe- follow with exactness!


Dennis’s Chocolate Chip Cookies
(high altitude recipe)

Preheat oven to 375

1 c. butter flavored Crisco
¾ c. granulated sugar
1 c. non-packed brown sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Cream Crisco very well. While mixing add granulated sugar then brown sugar. SLOWLY add one egg at a time. Add vanilla and cream together. Scrape the bowl to make sure ingredients are well mixed.

2 ½ c. H&R flour (hotel & restaurant)*
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
2 c. semi-sweet chocolate chips

In separate bowl add flour, salt and baking soda. Mix together with a spoon. Turn on mixer and slowly add to wet ingredients until well creamed. Add chocolate chips. Don’t over mix.

Wet hands and roll dough into balls slightly smaller than golf balls. Bake 10-11 minutes. Remove from oven and leave on baking sheet for another 5 minutes.

Makes two dozen cookies.

  1. Do you have hotel and restaurant flour? What happens if you use regular all-purpose?
