     2    Margarine
     2    Eggs
     1 c  Brown sugar
     1 c  White sugar
     1 ts Vanilla extract

   Hi!  Here is my mother's all-time favorite (& somewhat famous) recipe. If
 the dough seems sticky, add a little flour or oatmeal until it's easier to
 handle.  If it's too "wet," the cookies will be flat and crunchy.
     Beat first 5 ingredients, then by hand stir in the flour, powder, and
 soda.  When it is dough, add chips and nuts. Drop by tablespoonful onto
 lightly greased cookie sheet and bake at 350F for 8-12 minutes (careful not
 to overbake). If you want some variation, try leaving out a little
 margarine and replacing it with peanut butter, or replacing a little of the
 flour (about a cup) with oatmeal. (That's a little healthier, if that
 matters!)  Sometimes I throw in everything -- raisins, peanut butter chips,
 M & Ms, you name it. CHERYL LEONARD (SDDT95F)
