1/2 tsp. salt
2 1/4 cups flour

mix butter and sugar until slightly creamy and well blended. add eggs, vanilla and give a short mix. Add dry ingredients and give a quick mix. Add last ingredients. Mix until blended and drop onto parchment lined cookie sheets.

The currants and almonds give them a bit of texture and the chocolate, well chocolate is just obvious.
