Jumbo Snap Cookies

AngieME's Note:

These are absolutely incredible. If you have never tried them, you should! They are my favorite cookie, but I don't make it too often due to the 'extra' things, like melting chips and rolling in powdered sugar. Note: If you substitute all butter for the shortening, the cookies will still taste great, but they'll be too flat; and it's hard to keep the center chewy if they're so flat.
