Set aside. If there's anything in the oven, take it out. Set the oven rack to the middle position. Set the oven to bake, 375° F (191° C). Add to mixer mixing bowl: 3.25 oz (1/2 cup) shortening 9.5 oz (1 cup) peanut butter 6 oz (3/4 cups packed) brown sugar 3.5 oz (1/2 cup) sugar Mix on low-then-medium speed until consistent (about 1 minute).

Slowly add the dry ingredients to the mixer mixing bowl. Mix on low speed until almost all of the dry ingredients have disappeared. Turn off the mixer. Remove the bowl from the mixer. Using a spatula, stir in 4.5 oz (3/4 cups) chocolate chips. Using a cookie scoop, take a ball of dough. Roll the doll in your hands until roughly round. Place the balls on an ungreased baking tray. (The cookies will spread. You should be able to fit 8 cookies per 13"×9" baking tray, 2 rows by 4 columns.) Using a fork, flatten the cookies slightly. Place the baking tray in the oven on the middle rack. Set a timer for 10 minutes (or until the edges have lightly browned). Let cool on the baking tray for about 10 minutes. Remove from the baking tray and let cool on a wire rack for about 10 minutes.
