1/2 cup mini Semisweet chocolate chips 

DIRECTIONS

2. With a mixer on medium speed, beat butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, 3 tablespoons water, and vanilla until blended. Stir flour mixture into butter mixture, then beat until blended. Stir in chocolate chips.

4. Bake in a 350° oven until an even golden brown, 10 minutes.
