Starting again! Chocolate Drop Cookies

Wow, can't believe it has been over two years since I started and still haven't finished the recipe book! It is all typed, I am now testing and editing recipes. I made chocolate drop cookies last weekend, and they turned out pretty good. I am hoping to make a couple more recipes this weekend. After I have the book edited, I need to work on the pictures I want in the book. My goal is to have this done by the end of this year to give to family for a Christmas present. Here's the recipe for the Chocolate Drop Cookies. When I make them again, I think I might try adding some mini-chocolate chips or frosting them with a powdered sugar frosting. The dough is very soft. I did not think they would stay together and I would need to add more flour, but they did great. Enjoy!
Chocolate Drop Cookies from Kay Donabauer
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 egg
2 squares melted chocolate (I used semi-sweet)
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/3 cup flour
Cream together the butter and sugar. Add the egg and melted chocolate and vanilla. Mix well together. Sift the dry ingredients together and add to the creamed mixture alternately with the sour cream. Drop by tablespoons onto cookie sheet and bake at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes.
