directions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (180°C).
  • Mix the dry ingredients well; set aside.
  • Put milk, butter and chocolate in a pot of about 4 quarts, warm slightly and slowly just to melt the chocolate pieces. Add brown sugar and stir until lumps disapear.
  • Move the pot away from fire, stir in the sugar, molasses, raisin, nuts and, finally, the dry ingredients.
  • Let stand for about 10 minutes.
  • On a cookie sheet, spoon the dough and drop them 2 inches apart. If the dough drops are more than 1/2 inch high, press down with a spoon so it will cook evenly.
  • Bake 11-13 minutes until slightly browned.
