I use my Kitchen Aid stand mixer for this recipe. Cream together margerine, shortening, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla. Add eggs 1 at a time beating well after each. In a separate bowl, combine flour, salt, and baking soda. Gradually add flour mixture to other ingredients and beat well. Remove bowl from mixer and stir in chocolate chips. Drop by rounded teaspoonfulls 2" apart onto a baking sheet.

Bake for 8-10 minutes at 375°F Remove cookies from cookie sheet almost immediately to cool on a kitchen towel or paper towels.
