Directions

* I buy large good quality candy bars, such as Lindt, and chop them up. ** I use straight from the jar, you may prefer to chop up Preheat oven to 375 F Mix all dry ingredients together in a separate bowl In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until fluffy. Add vanilla and egg--mix well. Slowly add dry ingredients to butter/sugar mixture--mix well Add chocolate and nuts Spoon onto lightly greased cookie sheets (I use cushionaire--no burning) Make whatever size you what--I tend to make them large because it saves time Bake 8-12 minutes, depending on size of cookies--they should not brown, more of a golden color Cool on rack

BTW: I usually make a double batch of the dough, separate into halves, and add regular chocolate chunks and pecans to one (and maybe some coconut), white chocolate and macadamias to the other--two cookies with half the work
