1/4 tsp salt
2/3 cup vegetable shortening
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
2/3 cup packed brown sugar

1 cup chopped pecans

Combine flour, baking soda and salt.

Beat shortening, peanut butter, sugar and egg in large mixer bowl on medium speed until light and creamy, about 4 minutes.

Stir in flour mixture, baking chips and pecans. Mix well. Drop dough by spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
