1 egg
1 c. brown sugar, packed
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. flour
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1 c. chopped walnuts

Combine egg, brown sugar, and vanilla; mix thoroughly. Mix together flour, salt, and baking soda and stir into brown sugar mixture. Stir in nuts. Spread in greased 8 inch square pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes. Cool in pan on rack, then cut into 1 1/2 inch bars. (Chews are soft when warm.)

Note: A very quick, easy recipe for no-fat cookies with crisp crust and chewy sweet walnut centers.
