While I stick pretty closely to the recipe, I do make a few adjustments. One, I double the vanilla. The recipe calls for one teaspoon, but two is twice as wonderful! Second, I use Crisco. I'll be honest, the idea of Crisco grosses me out. I don't exactly know what's in it, and that's probably for the best. I like how fluffy the cookies become when using Crisco.
I'm sure I'm not alone in my slight twerking of the traditional recipe. What are your adjustments to the original?
