Late nights in the fields, hungry kids and farmers, unexpected company, or just simply craving sweets, you will always find a homemade cookie in my kitchen.

This dough can be used immediately, refrigerated or frozen, and baked one pan at a time. Either way, it is easy to throw a pan full of cookie dough in the oven and still taste amazingly delicious.

We always have people, whether a friend or farmer, a supplier, or a mechanic, dropping by, and this dough makes it easy to have freshly baked Chocolate Chip Cookies for them.

Crisp on the outside yet gooey on the inside; baked to perfection. This recipe is simple, straightforward, and made with basic ingredients easily found in your pantry.

My two secrets to this cookie recipe; are butter shortening, softening to room temperature, and not overbaking. Only bake for 9 minutes at 375° and take it out of the oven. Let them rest on the warm cookie sheet for 2-3 minutes before placing them on a cooling rack.
