Chocolate Chip Cookies (the best ever!)

1C butter flavored Crisco
3/4C packed brown sugar
3/4C white sugar
1tsp. vanilla flavoring
1tsp. almond flavoring
2 large eggs
2 1/2C flour
1 heaping tsp. salt
1 heaping tsp. baking soda
As much chocolate chips as you desire (I personally put in about 2C or so)

Pre-heat over to 350-365* (This varies depending on how well your oven heats up and how long you keep the cookies in there for). Mix the ingredients in order. One other tip I should mention is to disolve the baking soda in 1tsp-1tbsp of hot water before mixing in. Once the dough is ready, seperate into four equal parts. With each part roll into a 3 inch "cookie log" and slice with a knive or sturdy yet fine wire into 1/4 inch thick cookies. Bake until they are almost done (7-8 1/2min.) and allow to sit on the baking sheet for another 5-10 min before storing in an air tight container. You can make one roll at a time while refrigerating the rest if you like.
