Yield: Approximately 72 cookies (Varies depending on the size of the cookie)
Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup margarine
- 3/4 cup butter flavor shortening
- 1 1/2 cups brown sugar
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 3 eggs
- 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
- 3 tablespoons water
- 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups chocolate chips
Instructions:
-
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F and position the baking rack in the middle of the oven.
-
Prepare Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
-
Cream Margarine and Shortening: In a separate bowl, cream together the margarine and butter flavor shortening until smooth.
-
Add Sugars: Add the brown sugar and sugar to the creamed mixture, beating until creamy.
-
Incorporate Eggs: Add the eggs one by one, ensuring they are well incorporated.
-
Add Wet Ingredients: Pour in the light corn syrup, water, and vanilla extract. Mix well to create a smooth batter.
-
Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gradually blend the dry flour mixture into the creamed mixture, ensuring thorough mixing.
-
Stir in Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
-
Drop on Cookie Sheet: Drop teaspoonfuls of the cookie dough onto an ungreased cookie sheet, keeping them about 1 inch apart.

Bake to Perfection: Bake until the cookies are slightly underdone, approximately 10-12 minutes. Depending on your oven’s calibration, it might take a bit longer. The centers should be just set, and the edges a light golden brown. Remember, they’ll continue cooking from the residual heat even after removal from the oven.
