Chocolate Chip Lace Cookies

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with foil
and coat with nonstick spray.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar. Add the egg and
beat until light and fluffy. Stir in the vanilla and flour until a
smooth batter forms. Stir in the chocolate chips and nuts.

Drop the batter by the teaspoon at least 3 inches apart on the
foil-lined baking sheet. Bake for 7 to 10 minutes until the edges are
golden and the centers are set. Slide foil off pan onto a countertop
to cool. Peel foil away from the cookies when cooled. They will be
soft when hot but they become crispy as they cool.

Yield: 24 to 30 cookies.
