Note

* 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
eggmix well. Slowly add dry ingredients to butter/sugar mixturemix well
Add chocolate and nuts Spoon onto lightly greased cookie sheets (I use
cushionaireno burning) Make whatever size you whatI tend to make them
large because it saves time Bake 812 minutes, depending on size of
cookiesthey 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 othertwo cookies with half the work
