In a medium mixing bowl, beat shortening and butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the granulated sugar, brown sugar, and baking soda. Beat till combined, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
Beat in egg and vanilla till combined. Then, beat in the flour.
Drop dough by rounded teaspoons 2 inches apart on an un-greased cookie sheet.
NOTE: Flatten the dough balls prior to baking - we had better luck with them cooking more evenly.
Bake in a 375° oven for 8 to 10 minutes, or until edges are golden.
Cool cookies on the cookie sheet for 1 minute. Transfer cookies to a wire rack and let cool. Makes about 36 cookies.
