Ingredients
  • 9 cup Flour
  • 4 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 2 teaspoon Salt
  • 3 cup Packed brown sugar
  • 3 cup Sugar
  • 4 cup Shortening
Directions
  1. 1
    Sift the flour, baking soda, and salt together into a large mixing bowl to remove lumps and ensure even distribution.
  2. 2
    Add the packed brown sugar and granulated sugar to the dry ingredients.
  3. 3
    Cut the shortening into the sugar and flour mixture using a pastry blender or two forks until the texture resembles coarse crumbs with no large chunks of fat remaining.
  4. 4
    Transfer the mixed cookie base into airtight containers or freezer bags, label with the date, and store in a cool, dry place for up to 6 months.
  5. 5
    To bake, measure 7 cups of the cookie mix into a large bowl.
  6. 6
    Beat 2 eggs and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract together, then add to the mix and stir until a soft dough forms.
  7. 7
    Fold in 12 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  8. 8
    Preheat oven to 375&# 194;°F (190ðC) and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  9. 9
    Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough onto the baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  10. 10
    Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers still look slightly soft.
  11. 11
    Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
