This recipe was given to me by my dear friend Jeff’s mom. Mrs. Thomas is a wonderful woman who I have know since my Geneseo days. She knows how much I love to bake and was kind enough to share this with me. These cookies are marvelous! They use melted butter, so you can whip them up in no time. (A big plus). I used milk chocolate chips and pecans this time. You can use whatever flavor chips you wish. And if pecans are not your thing, try walnuts or macadamias. I made these quite large (1/4 cup), so I think I got 18 total.

• Ingredients
• 1 cup butter, melted
• 11/2 cups sugar
• 3/4 cup brown sugar

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips
• 1 cup chopped pecans

Directions – In a bowl, combine butter, sugar, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, cornstarch, salt and vanilla. Add eggs. fold in flour. Mix in chips and nuts. Scoop out 1/4 cups of dough. Chill for a couple of hours. Preheat oven to 350 degrees for 20 minutes. On a cookie sheet lined with nonstick baking liners, stagger cookies. Bake 11 to 15 minutes (light golden patches on top) cool completley. Store in covered container.
