  Heat oven to 350 F.
  
  Combine butter flavor Crisco, granulated sugar, brown sugar, milk,
  and vanilla in large bowl at medium speed of electric mixer until
  well blended. Beat in egg.
  
  Combine flour, cocoa, baking soda, and salt. Add to creamed
  mixture. Beat at low speed of electric mixer or by hand with large
  spoon, until blended. Stir in nuts and chocolate chips.
  
  Divide dough into 4 equal portions. Shape each into a 1x8" roll.

  Melt white chocolate and 1/2 ts butter flavor Crisco on VERY low

  chocolate hardens, if desired.
  
  Cut diagonally in 1" slices.

  Note: To harden chocolate quickly, place cookies in refrigerator
  for a few minutes.
