Instructions: Cream together the sugars, butter, shortening and salt. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each one. Combine flour and soda in a separate bowl. Alternately, add the flour mixture and milk to the creamed mixture; mixing by hand just until it starts to come together. Combine pecan pieces, chocolate chunks and chocolate chips. Fold into creamed mixture.

Using a large spoon, drop onto a greased cookie sheet; press down. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Do not overcook!

(If using a dark cookie sheet, decrease heat by 15-20 degrees.) Serve hot.

Makes 35 (2 oz.) cookies.

Serve to grandchildren with a freezer chilled glass of milk - or to your most discriminating dinner guest with coffee and Baileys. Too good to believe!!
