Valentine's Pizookie

       Ingredients

• 2 3/4 C all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 C unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 C crisco
• 1 C light brown sugar
• 1 C minus 2 TB white sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
• 1 1/2 C semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

1. In a small bowl gently mix together your flour, salt, and baking soda. Set aside.
2. In a stand mixer, cream butter and shortening on high until light and fluffy.
3. Add both sugars and beat on high until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla and mix until combined. Add the chocolate chips and mix gently.
4. Add the flour mixture and beat until just incorporated.
5. Fill your pazookie dish 1/2 full of cookie dough. We found these paper hearts at World Market, but you can use ramicans or anything small and bakeable.
6. Bake at 350 for about 15 minutes. Baking times will vary based on how much cookie dough you are using. Just remember that under-baked is good!
7. Top with ice cream and whatever else your heart (or sweetheart) desires.
