Description

This was my great grandmother’s recipe. They were the alternative to Toll House cookies when I was growing up. They have a different taste and softer texture. The original recipe calls for shortening, but feel free to substitute.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Shortening (or Butter)
  • 2 whole Eggs At Room Temperature
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 cup Honey
  • 2-½ cups All-purpose Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 bag Chocolate Chips (small Bag)

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a medium bowl, beat shortening, eggs, and vanilla. Stir in the honey.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, soda, and salt.

Slowly incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. Stir until just combined.

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes or until golden.

I halved the recipe and ended up making 18. I didnt have enough honey so i added a little white sugar to sweeten it up. It ended up being sort of dry but maybe that’s because of the sugar? Or maybe its because I used butter instead of shortening?

I made these today and they are great. They do have a cakey texture and are just sweet enough. I used local honey and feel like I’m eating something good for me! The next time I make these I might try half butter, half shortening and some whole wheat flour…

I loved these! I will definitely be making them again. They have a perfect cakey texture, and the honey flavor is great with the chocolate. I cut the recipe in half, and it made exactly 12 cookies, so the serving count is spot on. I also used 2 squares of semi-sweet baking chocolate that I chopped myself, because I didn’t have chocolate chips on hand. It worked just fine.
