Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Beat the shortening with sugar and egg until light and fluffy.

Add dry ingredients and beat until well combined.
Add chocolate a little at a time, cutting in with a knife. Do not stir.
Form dough into balls and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. Flatten with the bottom of a sugar-coated glass.
Bake 8 to 10 minutes until lightly golden.
NOTE: I find these a bit salty, i will have to reduce the salt next time. Baked them for 15min.
