  * 1 large egg, room temp
  * 1 1/2 cup flour
  * 1/2 tsp baking soda
  * 1/2 tsp salt
  * 1 cup chocolate chips (or 1/2 cup large chocolate chips; or 3/4 cup chopped walnuts and 1/4 cup chocolate chips)

===== Preparation =====

  * Preheat oven to 350°F
  * Melt butter (not too hot)
  * Combine sugars
  * Add butter, vanilla, and egg to sugars
  * Sift in flour with baking soda and salt mixed in
  * Stir until flour *almost* disappeared and then stir in chocolate chips and/or walnuts
  * Bake 11-12 minutes (only 10 minutes in convection oven)
