Directions
Sift flour once, then measure and sift again with salt and soda. Cream the butter, add all sugar, and cream thoroughly. Add eggs and beat until mixture is light and fluffy. Add hot water and vanilla, then add sifted flour mixture. Add chocolate which has been coarsely chopped and the pecan meats. Drop by spoonfuls onto greased cookie sheet. Bake 20 minutes in 350 degrees F oven. Makes 3 dozen cookies. (The amounts of brown sugar and granulated sugar are not typos. 3/8 is what is called for.)
