The cookies look so good! Do you think butter would work instead of shortening!
Thanks for posting this, I've already printed off the packet instructions.

Butter has more liquid than shortening, so the measurements would be different. It would probably take 3/4 cup of butter instead of the 1/2 cup of shortening that the recipe calls for. I would say 95% of the mix recipes I use call for butter, but in this case I would recommend going with the shortening. You can use a butter-flavored shortening if it's the buttery flavor you're looking for, but I have a feeling that's not the reason.
If you're feeling a little brave . . . give it a try using the 3/4 cup of butter.
Let me know how it works!

Connie,
I couldn't stand not knowing whether the cookies would work with butter instead of shortening,so I whipped up a batch.
They turned out really good. I did end up using 3/4 of a cup of butter and I used 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/2 cup chocolate chips and I topped the cookie off with 1/2 of a caramel. (I added it about 1 minute before the cookie timer went off.) They weren't quite as moist as the other batch, but out of the 12 taste testers, only one didn't like it very much . . . I found out later that he's not a fan of nuts!
Hope that helps!
