Preparation


PREHEAT oven to 375ºF (180ºC).


BEAT brown sugar and shortening together until light and creamy. Add egg, milk and vanilla; mix well. Combine flour, salt and baking soda in a separate bowl. Incorporate into creamed mixture.


STIR in chocolate chips and nuts. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheet about 3 in (7 cm) apart.


BAKE one baking sheet at a time at 375ºF (180ºC) for 8-10 minutes for chewy cookies, 11-13 minutes for crisp cookies. Be careful not to overbake. Let cool for 2 minutes on baking sheet, then place on rack to cool completely.


TIP


If desired, omit pecans and use an additional ½ cup (125 mL) of choclate chips.
