Ingredients

1 teaspoon salt 

2 teaspoons baking soda 

3 3/4 cups all-purpose flour 

1 teaspoon vanilla extract 

3 large eggs 

1 3/4 cups firmly packed brown sugar 

3/4 cup sugar 

1/2 cup vegetable shortening
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened 

1 (12-ounce) package semisweet chocolate morsels 

1 cup milk chocolate morsels 

3 (1-ounce) squares bittersweet chocolate, chopped

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease baking sheets.

With an electric mixer, beat butter and shortening at medium speed until creamy; gradually add sugars, beating until fluffy. Add eggs and vanilla, beating well.

In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt; gradually add to butter mixture, beating until blended. Stir in chocolate morsels and almond brickle chips. Drop cookies by 1/4 cupfuls about 3-inches apart onto prepared baking sheets. Bake for 11 to 12 minutes, or until lightly browned. Let cool for 2 minutes on baking sheets. Remove to wire racks to cool.
