I thought these cookies were great. I used butter instead of shortening to cut off a few calories. They came out perfect! I'll be making these a lot in my house!

These cookies turned out differently than I expected. I thought they would be more cake-like. However, my entire family loved them! I used butter-flavored shortening. I also rolled the dough into balls then very slightly flattened them before baking. The cookies looked beautiful! They browned nicely, but were still very soft. They looked like beautiful bakery cookies, but tasted much better! My six-year old daughter asked for this recipe to be added to the cookbook we are making for her. It is definitely a "keeper" recipe!

These cookies are a sinch to make and they come out soft and delicious. I've replaced chocolate chips on numerous occasions with other things such as reece's pieces & m&ms. Always came out great.

HORRIBLE, DISGUSTING RECIPE. THE COOKIES WERE THE WORST EVER. DO NOT TRY THIS RECIPE!!!!!!!!!! I AM ANGRY THAT I WASTED ALL THE INGREDIENTS FOR IT.

Yuck! I give credit for the fact that they are, indeed, chewy. They have no flavor, except that of shortening. I'll stick with my tried and true!

Although these cookies were nice and soft, we found them absolutely tasteless. The only taste was the generous amount of chocolate chips. My husband took one bite and said, "You changed your recipe" - so back to the old!

*The recipe I was looking for! Very soft, fluffy little cookies! I suggest using butter-flavored Crisco for extra flavor. This recipe is very quick and easy. Delicious!*

These were very soft and cake-like. My husband thought they were the best I have ever made. He told me to throw out all my other recipes and keep this one!

This was really really yummy!! It was very soft, but still held it's shape. I hate when cookies flatten out while cooking. This cookie held up wonderfully, and my 4 children "LOVED" them. This is one I will make over and over. THANK YOU

Wow. My roomate is a "cookie junkie". She is very picky with her food, especially her favorite kind-cookies. For her birthday, I baked these award winning cookies and by the next day they were finished! Her appetite is usually small but she devoured these treats. They truly are award winning.

I don't bake much, but these turned out very well. They were gone in two days. My son says they were "really great."

Hi Sandy! Delicious choc chip cookies. Very soft, and very yummy! I'm only 15 and a first time 'from scratch' cook, so considering that it did take me awhile to make everything. Instead of shortening I used butter, which gave a great flavour. Note: To anyone that substitutes butter for shortening - leave it out for 1-2 hours! I made the mistake of leaving it out for 15 mins, and it took me ages to mix the sugar and butter. Lol. Overall though, the turnout was fantastic; everyone in the family loved it! Thanks for a great recipe.
