  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1      cup           brown sugar -- light or dark
     1/2  cup           sugar
   2      sticks        butter
   3      tablespoons   shortening
   1      teaspoon      salt
   4                    eggs
   1 1/2  teaspoons     baking soda
   3 1/2  cups          all-purpose flour
     1/4  cup           milk
   2      cups          pecan pieces
   8      ounces        white chocolate chunks
   8      ounces        milk chocolate chunks
   8      ounces        semi-sweet chocolate chunks
   1      cup           mini chocolate chips

Cream together the sugars, butter, shortening and salt. Add eggs, one
at a time, beating after each one. Combine flour and soda in a
separate bowl. Alternately, add the flour mixture and milk to the
creamed mixture; mixing by hand just until it starts to come
together. Combine pecan pieces, chocolate chunks and chocolate chips.
Fold into creamed mixture. Using a large spoon, drop onto a greased
cookie sheet; press down. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or
until golden brown. Do not overcook! (If using a dark cookie sheet,
decrease heat by 15-20 degrees.) Serve hot. 

Makes 35 (2 oz.) cookies.

Serve to grandchildren with a freezer chilled glass of milk - or to
your most discriminating dinner guest with coffee and Bailey's. Too
good to believe!!
