2 ounces light brown sugar |

1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 egg, beaten |
4 ounces whole pecans |
4 ounces all-purpose flour |
1 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 350°F Melt half the chocolate in the microwave on High for 1 min or over a pan of simmering water.
2. Beat in the butter, sugars, vanilla and egg until smooth, then stir in three-quarters of both the nuts and remaining chocolate, then the flour and bicarbonate of soda.
3. Heap 12 spoonfuls, spaced far apart, on 2 baking sheets (don't spread the mixture), then poke in the reserved nuts and chocolate.
