We discovered some time ago that not everyone likes oatmeal in their cookies. Imagine that. We have a family recipe for Cowboy Cookies from our Grandmother and that is the cookies we make most often. But now that we have someone that does not like oatmeal, we had to reconsider our cookie-making. So we now have an Easy Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookie Recipe.

This recipe was the original Mimi’s Famous Cowboy Cookie recipe and was just tweaked to fit our cookie needs. Possibly “invented” from the Cowboy Cookie recipe is the right term. Anyway, here is today’s talk, a step-by-step on how to make Easy Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies.

To make your Easy Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookie Recipe you will need:

1 cup Crisco

1 1/2 cups sugar

1 cup brown sugar

2 eggs

3 cups of flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon Vanilla

1 package of chocolate chips

cookie sheets

parchment paper

a way to mix, by hand or with a mixer

This is a picutre of the ingredients to make Easy Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies. There are eggs, some vanilla, sugar, flour, chips, salt, baking powder, baking soda, and Crisco.

This can be done by hand but an electric mixer makes things go so much easier and faster.

Steps to make Easy Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies:

1. Cream the Crisco, the regular sugar, and brown sugar.

2. Add the eggs and again mix well.

3. Add the Vanilla and mix.

4. In a bowl, sift together the flour, baking soda, salt, and baking powder.

5. Add the dry mix to the creamed mix. Make sure to scrape the sides of the mixer to get all the goodie.

6. Add the chips. Mix well but do not beat the chocolate chip into a paste. Yes, that can happen if you over-mix in an electric mixer.

Please note, something went wrong with our picture taking and we took no pictures for any of steps 1 through 5.

7. Make your cookie shapes. Roll by hand and flatten or roll out and use a cookie cutter.

We use the drop method for most of our cookies.
