Use butter instead of shortening in the cookie recipe (cookies will spread more and be thinner and crispier). Real margarine works even better.
Use a little bit more liquid in the batter; that will help cookies to spread more, and thus be thinner and crispier
Substitute 1 tablespoon of corn syrup for 1 tablespoon of the sugar called for in the recipe; it will make the cookies crispier and browner
Use bread flour for drier, crispier cookies (they will be darker, too)
Bread flour absorbs more liquid from the recipe than any other type of flour
All-purpose flour can also make a crispy cookie, which will be more tender than a cookie made entirely with bread flour
Replace the egg called for in the recipe with milk for a crispier cookie
Use baking soda instead of baking powder (to make dough less acidic)
A less acidic batter spreads more, cookies will be crispier
Substitute ½ teaspoon baking soda per cup of flour for the baking powder called for in the recipe

Keep them in the over for a longer period of time.

Don't bake them when it's humid out.

Probably just bake them a little longer.
