Directions
In a large mixing bowl, cream shortening, sugar, water and vanilla.
Beat in the eggs. Combine flour, cocoa, salt and baking soda; gradually add to creamed mixture and beat just until blended. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts if desired. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls 2" apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 375 degrees for 7-9 minutes; do not overbake. Cool 2 minutes before removing to wire racks. Note: I made these cookies and they were very good! They do taste just like brownies. Be sure not to over- bake them. - Debbie Carlson Yields: 4 dozen From: "Taste of Home" Magazine, October/November 1994 Posted by: Debbie Carlson - Cooking Submitted By DEBBIE CARLSON On 10-16-94
