Ultimate Chocolate Chip Cookies by Crisco

3/4 cup butter flavored crisco
2 tbsp milk
1 egg
1 tsp salt
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla
1 3/4 cup flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup pecans

Heat oven to 375.  Combine butter flavor crisco, brown sugar, milk and vanilla in large bowl.  Beat at medium speed until creamy.

Beat egg into creamed mixture.

Combine flour, salt and baking soda and mix into creamed mixture until just blended.

Stir in chocolate chips and pecans.  Drop rounded tablespoonfuls 3 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheet.

Bake 375 for 8-10 minutes for chewy cookies (cookies will appear moist - DO NOT OVERBAKE) or 11-13 minutes for crisp cookies.  (I did 10 minutes, probably better with 8 minutes)

Cool on baking sheet 2 minutes.

Makes 2 1/2 dozen.
