ingredients
1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter or margarine, at room temperature
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 large egg
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup chopped nuts (optional)
directions
Mix flour, baking soda, and salt.
Beat butter, sugar, and vanilla with a mixer on medium speed until well blended. Beat in egg, mixing well. Add flour mixture, and beat slowly to incorporate, then beat to blend well. Stir in chocolate chips and nuts.
Drop batter in 2-tablespoon portions about 2 inches apart on baking sheets. Bake in a 400 degrees F oven until edges of cookies are brown but an area about 1 inch wide in the center is still pale, 6 to 7 minutes.
If using 2 pans in one oven, switch positions at half-time. Let cookies cool on pan about 5 minutes, then transfer to racks with a spatula.
Serve warm or cool. Store airtight up to 8 hours, or freeze for longer storage.

The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.
