  bowl. Bet at medium speed of electric mixer until well blended.  Beat in 
  egg. 
  3. Combine flour, salt, and baking soda.  Mix into creamed mixture at low 
  speed until just blended. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts. 
  4. Drop rounded tablespoonfuls of dough 3 inches apart onto ungreased 
  baking sheet. 
  5. Bake at 375 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes for shewy cookies (they will

  Cool 2 minutes on baking sheet. Remove to cooling rack...if they get that 
  far.
