My Best Recipe- Boy Do I Miss It!
Posted by Dr. Cason on Thursday, October 30th, 2008
When all these food allergies are just a memory of yesterday, I will load up on chocolate chips, eggs, flour, sugar and salt and make our favorite family recipe.
This is for Lisa of Libelletage- one of my favorite blogs. She’s hosting a contest of your favorite holiday recipes. Here’s to you Lisa- Enjoy!
Ingredients:
-
1 cup of shortening
-
1 cup of white sugar
-
½ cup brown sugar
-
2 tsp vanilla
-
2 eggs
-
2 tsp baking soda
-
1 tsp salt
-
2 cups all purpose flour
-
12 oz bag of semi-sweet chocolate chips
Mix the first 5 ingredients together until smooth. Combine the dry ingredients together in a separate bowl and then add to the sugar mixture. Add the chocolate chips in last.

Sara Rosson 30 Oct 2008 at 9:38 am 2Sounds fantastic. I have been experimenting with Egg Replacer so my food allergy girl, can partake in baked goods. I could try that with this recipe. The shortening is great as the dairy replacement.
Sheila, have you tried the egg replacer? Can you get that in Guam?

Kristinon 30 Oct 2008 at 11:16 am 4I was just recently diagnosed with diabetes, so I’m still in the mourning phase of baking. I love to bake and Thanksgiving/Christmas time is prime baking season. I’ll have to figure out something else to do – either that or bake and take! not eat lol

Nikkion 30 Oct 2008 at 11:36 am 5I seriously HATE baking, but the husband has been begging for cookies for weeks now… looks like I have to excuse now!
White Hot Magikon 30 Oct 2008 at 11:51 am 6Mmm yummy I hope you can find a substitute or even better get rid of the allergy. I love oatmeal and pecans in my chocolate chip cookies.
Kylaon 30 Oct 2008 at 1:10 pm 7Mmmm, I have been craving baked goods (perhaps the stress of exams and television appearances and upcoming surgeries has something to do with it) and these sound like they would hit the spot!

Jadenon 30 Oct 2008 at 11:38 pm 8I’m so sad I can’t see your cookie pic! For some reason, the photos on your site haven’t been visible to me for the past few days. Maybe I’ll try a different browser… hmm… Anyway, they sound super yummy! I’m going to attempt making homemade candy this year, we’ll see how that goes!

Barbara Swaffordon 31 Oct 2008 at 11:45 am 9Hi DR. Cason – This is TOO ironic. My husband just asked for chocolate chip cookies. I buy the frozen ones from Costco and baked him four. They aren’t as good as homemade, but do in a pinch. Your recipe looks similar to my scratch one. Yum!
