On a parchment-lined baking sheet, shape each portion into a 12x2-in. rectangle. Bake until golden brown and crisp, 20-25 minutes. Cool on pan 2 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely., Transfer baked rectangles to a cutting board. Using a serrated knife, cut into 1-in. slices., In a microwave-safe bowl, melt chocolate chips and shortening; stir until smooth.

[email protected]These cookies were a disaster! They spread out too much in the oven and they ended up being really thin and crispy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

[email protected]These cookies were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try making them with less sugar next time.
