3/4 cup butter-flavored shortening
1-1/4 cups packed brown sugar
2 Tbl. sour cream (or milk)
1 Tbl. vanilla
1 egg
1/2 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. baking soda
2-1/3 cups flour
1-1/2 cups chocolate chips
Mix shortening with brown sugar and sour cream. Add vanilla and egg. Mix well. Add dry ingredients and mix well. Mix in chocolate chips. Roll into balls and press lightly onto greased cookie sheet (I use a stone pan).
Bake at 375 degrees for 10-11 min.
