Preparation

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 375 degrees.
Grease a 9 x 13 inch pan.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, combine butter, shortening, sugar and brown sugar. Beat for 3 minutes.
Add in eggs and vanilla and beat for an additional 2 minutes.
Turn the speed to low and add in flour, baking soda and salt. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as you go.
Fold in chocolate chips until they are distributed throughout the dough.
Spread dough into the baking dish.
Bake for 15-20 minutes. I usually bake for around 15 minutes because we like our cookies on the softer side.
Allow to cool completely. If you want to eat the chocolate chip cookie bars as-is, stop here. If you want to turn them into dipped chocolate chip cookies, continue on.
Place the pan of cookies in the freezer for about 10 minutes. This will make cutting them out and dipping them easier.
Cut out cookies using a cookie cutter and place on wax/parchment paper.
Melt white chocolate according to the directions on the package.
Take one cookie at a time and hand dip into the white chocolate, covering half the cookie.
Immediately top with sprinkles.
Allow the chocolate to set for a few minutes.
Enjoy!
