Crisco Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies

Crisco Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies made with Crisco butter flavor, milk chocolate, and basic baking ingredients.

My grandmother always baked using Crisco or a ton of butter (literally) and one of my favorites are these Crisco Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies that she baked every year around Christmas time. These cookies are really simple and stay soft for a long time. If you prefer your cookies crispy, just bake a bit longer.

I feel like baking Crisco Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies has become a tradition in the family. My grandmother passed away a few years ago and some traditions have been discontinued… I think that is a normal within families. It is time to start building my own traditions now and these cookies are here to stay.

Crisco Mini Chocolate Chip Cookies

I told you earlier that these cookies are easy to whip up and they really are! You just need to beat everything with a hand mixer, stir in those yummy chocolate chips and bake around 10 minutes.

Create gift boxes for your neighbors, friends and co-workers to say Happy Holiday’s. Line parchment into a festive box, place a row of cookies followed by another row of parchment paper and cookies.
