Nutrition calculation pending ingredient labels and measured serving yield.
Ingredients
For one original Toll House batch: 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour; 1 teaspoon baking soda; 1 cup Crisco All-Vegetable Shortening (replaces butter one-for-one); 3/4 cup granulated sugar; 3/4 cup packed brown sugar; 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract; 2 large eggs; 2 cups Nestlé Toll House Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips. No added salt. No nuts. Friday take-home cookie only. Planning yield: 60 rounded-tablespoon cookies per batch, to be verified after baking. Scale all ingredient lines with this yield; no fruit included.
Preparation
Follow the classic Nestlé Toll House recipe exactly, except omit the salt and replace the butter with the same amount of Crisco. Make small child-size cookies and bake as directed. Cool completely and pack one cookie per child.
