1 lb. butter
16 oz. dark brown sugar
1 1/2 c. sugar
2 tbsp. vanilla
3 eggs
6 c. flour
1 1/2 tsp. salt
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
24 oz. pkg. chocolate chips
2 c. chopped nuts

Cream first 3 ingredients. Add vanilla and eggs. Beat with mixer for 3 minutes. Then add flour, salt, baking soda, and mix together. Fold in chips and nuts. Put spoonfuls of dough on a sheet of aluminum foil (this is important -don't forget the foil) on a cookie sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-15 minutes. Makes about 9 dozen cookies.
