Light and Fluffy Chocolate Chip Cookies image

I found an original recipe and adapted it to my taste. I love the fluffiness of this cookie. It's soft, not hard, and crunchy. I get so many compliments on this recipe!

Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup shortening
½ cup butter, softened
1 cup packed brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon baking soda
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
1 (11 ounce) package semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Beat shortening and butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add brown sugar and white sugar and beat until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla extract, and baking soda; beat until well mixed.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, 8 to 9 minutes.
