Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies

For years I searched for the perfect cookie recipe that would lend itself to any dried fruit, nut, or chip and I feel I've finally found it. This recipe lends itself to any addition I've tried. The picture shown here, top, has walnuts and chocolate chips. The bottom pic has chocolate chips, walnuts and mini M&M's. The timing is right on (I put the cookie sheet on the second tier from the top) and my guys eat 'em up!!
