This recipe is from The Joy of Cooking and has been appearing in that cookbook since the 1943 edition. If you make them, you will understand why. This is one of the easiest and most reliably awesome recipes I know.
Makes about 36 2 1/2" cookies.
Preheat oven to 375 F, grease 2 cookie sheets.
Whisk together:
1 cup + 2 Tbs all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
Beat in a large bowl until blended:
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
1/2 sugar
1/2 light brown sugar
Add and beat until well combined:
1 large egg
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp vanilla
Stir in flour mixture until well-blended and smooth.
Stir in:
1 cup chocolate chips
(3/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans)
Drop the dough in heaping teaspoonfuls on the cookie sheets, about 2" apart. Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until the tops of the cookies are just slightly colored and the edges are brown, 8-10 mins. Let stand briefly, then remove to a rack to cool.
