1 6-oz package of semi sweet chocolate pieces
1 cup chopped pecans

Do not open door.
Yields 3 to 4 dozen cookies.
I hand copied this recipe from my mother’s copy of a cookbook published by an organization in Charleston, South Carolina. Unfortunately I no longer have access to the book since my mother has died, so I cannot credit them directly. I include it only because it is one of my favorite recipes, with apologies for the lack of direct credit.
