Coffee House Cookies


A little twist on chocolate chip cookies. These look as delicious as they taste!

1-1/2 C flour
1/2 t soda
1/4 t salt
1/2 C butter, softened
3/4 C brown sugar
1 egg
1 t vanilla
1 C chopped walnuts or pecans (opt)
1 C semi-sweet choc chunks
2 bars (1.5-2 oz) favorite candy bar (Snickers or Reese's work well)

Heat oven to 350. Beat butter and bworn sugar till creamy. Add eg and vanilla; beat well. Gradually beat in flour, soda, and salt.

Sitr 2/3 C nuts and 2/3 C choc chunks. Cut candy bars into small pieces; set aside. Drop dough into scoops about 3 in apart. Press remaining nuts and choc and candy onto tops of cookies. (I mix all the chocolate and nuts into the batter and only press the candy pieces onto the top) Bake 12 - 15 min or till cookies are almost set. (Center will be sort. Do not overbake.) Yield 1 to 1-1/2 dozen cookies, depending on size.
