Doh, I have a great one -- back at home in Dallas, where I am not currently.
Hint, I add finely chopped pecans to mine. But, you have to be careful with that when making them for a bunch of people, due to nut allergies, and all. They are great without nuts, too.
I also have found Butter-Flavored Crisco to be the best fat. My mom refuses to use it, even while my dad gobbles down my CC cookies.
I make my own vanilla extract, too, but now I'm just bragging. A high-quality store bought vanilla works fine in CC cookies.
That wasn't a whole lot of help, but it's all I can do from a hotel room in Memphis.
