1/2 cup shortening

1 egg 

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1 1/2 cup chocolate chips (I like semisweet!) 

Flaky sea salt

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Combine flour, baking soda and salt. In a different bow, combine softened butter with shortening, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla. Beat until creamy. Add egg and mix well. Stir in chocolate chips.
