I did love cookies; however, I used canola oil instead of shortening, and used pecans instead of walnuts. I didn't measure anything perfectly, except the flour, & it came out fine....the pecans with the butter was a delicious combo!

Don't waste your time trying to modify this recipe. There are much better ones out there.

Like the other reviewers before me indicated (but I didn't read until after making the cookies) there is too much butter and not enough flour. What you end up with is a melted mess on the cookie sheet. I ended up freezing remaining dough to add to vanilla ice cream.

My husband loves chocolate chip cookies, and this recipe has potential if you cut out the butter flavored shortening, used 1 1/2 cups of flour, add 1/4 tsp. of cream of tartar and bake these at 350 for 10 minutes vs. 375 - you'll have a much better experience.....

I wish I had read other reviews first. You must add more flour to this recipe. I knew when I was mixing it something wasn't right. I added flour to after the first batch and it helped.

I've been making choc chip cookies for many years. My recipe is almost exactly like this one but I only use 1/2 cup shortening in mine. Just omit the butter and then they will be perfect :)

The recipe needs more flour and because I love chocolate I added 1/2 a cup more chips

These cookies were all right. They came out way to greasy. You could see the butter on the sulferized paper. And I agree with the other people: there wasn't enough flour.
