Chocolate Chip Dream

What is better than Chocolate Chip Cookies right out of the oven?  Individual desserts topped with ice cream.  This is my husbands favorite dessert!

1/2 C Butter
1/2 C Crisco
1 C Granulated Sugar
1 C Brown Sugar
2 large Eggs
1 t Soda
2 1/2 C Flour
1 t Salt
1 t Vanilla
1 package Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips

Cream together Butter, Crisco, White sugar and brown sugar.  Add eggs and mix again.  While mixing, slowly add soda, salt, flour and vanilla, beat until mixed.  Add chocolate chips and stir by hand.   Scoop 1/3 C or so into a Ramekin Cup or small cereal bowl (make sure they are oven proof).  Preheat oven to 375.  Place cups on the bottom rack of oven for 10 minutes, then move to upper rack (middle of oven) for additional 10 - 12 minutes.  The inside of the cookie dough will be gooey.  Take out of oven and top with Vanilla Bean Ice Cream.  This dessert is rich, but so good!  Recipe will make 8 servings.
