 Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2      cups          all-purpose flour
  1      teaspoon      baking soda
    1/2  teaspoon      salt
  1      cup           butter flavored vegetable shortening
  1 1/4  cups          brown sugar -- firmly packed
    1/2  cup           malted milk powder
  2      tablespoons   chocolate syrup
  1      large         egg
  1 1/2  cups          semisweet chocolate chips
  1      cup           milk chocolate chips

  Preheat oven to 350-degrees.

  Get out 2 cookie sheets; no need to grease them.

  Mix together the flour, baking soda and salt; set aside.

  In a mixing bowl, combine the shortening, brown sugar, malted
  milk powder, chocolate syrup and vanilla. Beat 2 minutes, then
  add the egg and beat for a second or two, until mixed.

  Gradually add the flour mixture to the creamed mixture, mixing
  well between additions. Stir in chocolate morsels and chips. I j
  used Guittard's BIG chocolate morsels and their milk chocolate
  chips. BTW, these cookies are LOADED with chocolate chips!

  Shape dough into 2-inch balls. Place 6 balls of dough onto each
  cookie sheet, spacing them 3 inches apart. The cookies are
  pretty big, not tiny ones.

  Bake for 12-14 minutes, or until golden brown. Mine took 12
  minutes. Don't over-cook them or they'll be hard as a rock.

  Cool on cookie sheets for at least 2 minutes or they'll fall
  apart. Cool on wire racks.
