Kristy Gonsalves sent this recipe for me to try. She says, "it's the best". I'll have to try it!

1 tsp vanilla extract
1+ 1/4 cup (155g) all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking soda
4oz (110g) milk chocolate chips
4oz (110g) dark chocolate chips

- in a large bowl, whisk together the sugar, salt and butter until a paste forms with no lumps.
- whisk in a the egg and vanilla, beating until light ribbons fall of the whisk and remain for a short while before falling back into the mixture.
