Ingredients:

Serving

1 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups flour
1 pinch salt
2 eggs
12 oz semisweet chocolate chunks or 12 oz chips
8 -10 oz chopped macadamia nuts (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F.
Grease cookie sheets.
Separate eggs. Bring butter to room temperature.
Combine all ingredients except chocolate and egg whites.
Mix well.
Stir in chocolate (and nuts if you like).
Roll in 1 1/2 balls and place on cookie sheet.
Flatten balls to 3/8 (Yes, they are pretty thick. They don't spread much.).
Brush with beaten egg white. Don't skip this step as it creates the distinctive crackly top.
Bake 10-12 minutes or until just starting to brown on the edges. I find baking a single sheet in the top third of the oven gives the best results. They tend to burn on the bottom if baked lower in the oven.
Cool on the sheets 1-2 minutes until firm enough to move to racks for cooling.
Alternate preparation method: Roll the dough into a 2 1/2 diameter log. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for an hour or freeze for up to several weeks. Before baking, thaw if frozen. Cut into slices 3/8 thick. Brush with egg white and bake as above.
