1 lg Egg yolks plus 2 tsp water
Or 1 large egg white
One half cup Allpurpose flour
One fourth teaspoon Doubleacting baking powder
One fourth teaspoon Salt
One fourth teaspoon Vanilla
1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat the oven to 375 F. In a bowl with an electric mixer cream the
butter with the brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy and beat
