DawnNYS, Evan, Sandi in Hawaii, and AngAk,
Thanks for the conversion advice. I made 1/3 of a recipe and got lots of cookies. Yes I know that it sounds like a lot of shortening, but they came out perfectly (after I figured out that they were actually going to take 15 minutes at 350). They are very short, kind of melt in your mouth. You just want to grab for a tall glass of cold milk. Not a cookie I could make often, but exactly what my son asked for. Thanks again for your help.
