Chocolate Chick Cookie

INGREDIENTS:

(this makes a lot...about 45 LARGE cookies, so you can halve the recipe or freeze the extras)

2 cups shortening (Crisco)

2 cups white sugar

1 cup brown sugar

4 eggs

1 Tbl vanilla

1/3 cup milk

6 cups flour

1 cup Oat Flour (grind regular oats in blender)

1 Tbl salt

2 tsp baking soda

2 bags chocolate chips

DRIECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

In large mixing bowl, cream together shortening, white sugar and brown sugar.

Mix in eggs.

Add vanilla and milk.

Gradually add the flour and "oat flour", salt, and baking soda.

Mix well and stir in chocolate chips.

Drop by teaspoonful onto foiled cookie sheet and bake for 6-8 minutes OR

make larger cookies using a 1/4 cup to measure each and bake for about 10-12 minutes.

(I ALWAYS set the timer for 2 minutes earlier than what it calls for. I check on the cookies and stay close to see when they have been cooked perfectly. When making the larger cookies, I slightly press on them with the flat side of a spatula when bringing them out of the oven.)

This recipe is from my sister (one of us CookingChicks). She had a cookie company and this was of course a favorite. :)
