1/2 c. granulated sugar
1/4 c. packed brown sugar
1/4 c. butter, softened
1/4 c. shortening
1 egg
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 2/3 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
Approximately 30 chocolate mint wafers

Heat oven to 400 degrees. Mix sugars, butter, shortening, egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda and salt. Shape about 1 tablespoon of dough around each wafer. Place about 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Bake until light brown, 9-10 minutes. Makes about 2 1/2 dozen. (Tootsie roll pieces, caramels, etc. can be substituted for chocolate wafers.)
