A lady in our church makes some of the best cookies............she calls them the chocolate chipless cookies. That's right, they don't have chocolate chips in them and they are so tasty! I don't have her recipe but I took my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe and just left out the chocolate chips and they turned out great. I found that the key to making these yummy cookies to make them taste like hers is to beat them in the mixer for a very long time. It makes them smooth, creamy and fluffy, oh my goodness, melt in your mouth hot out of the oven delicious!!!! I hope you enjoy them!
Chocolate Chipless Cookies
1 cup butter flavored shortening
3/4 cup white sugar
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease cookie sheets. In a large bowl, mix together the butter flavored shortening, brown sugar and white sugar until very light and fluffy(this is the key to having smooth, creamy cookies, so mix together for a long time, at least 5-7 minutes). Next, add the eggs one at a time, beating well with each addition, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda and salt in another bowl. Gradually stir the flour mixture into the creamed mixture. Make sure you mix this together completely too. Now drop spoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes until light brown. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely. Hope you enjoy!
