Best Chocolate Chippers

1 cup butter

1 cup vegetable oil

1 cup white sugar

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

4 teaspoons cream of tartar

1 teaspoon salt

2 cups semi sweet chocolate chips

1 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Preheat oven to 350

In large bowl, cream together the butter, oil, brown sugar and white sugar until smooth. Beat in the eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, cream of tartar and salt; stir into the creamed mixture. Mix in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Drop by rounded teaspoons onto ungreased cookie sheets (or parchment).

Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until light brown. Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheets for a couple of minutes before transferring to wire racke to cool completely.

Yield 48 large sized cookies. ** I was able to get about 80 nice sized cookies.
