Double Tree Chocolate Chip Cookies

Yield: approximately 4 dozen.
1 1/2 C. butter — softened
1 1/2 C. granulated sugar
3/4 C. firmly packed brown sugar
4 eggs
2 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
1 tsp. lemon juice
3 C. all-purpose flour
3/4 C. old-fashioned oatmeal — uncooked
3/4 tsp. Baking Soda
1 tsp. Salt
1/4 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
3 C. Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips — Ghirardelli
1 1/2 C. chopped walnuts

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the butter in a large bowl and cream lightly with an electric mixer. Add the sugars and beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla and lemon juice and mix well. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, oatmeal, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Add to the creamed butter mixture and stir well to blend. Add chocolate chips and walnuts and stir to combine. Using a 1/4 cup measure or a 2-oz ice cream scoop, drop the batter on the parchment-lined pans, leaving 2 -3 inches between each cookie. Bake for 13 – 15 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Remove from parchment and cool on wire racks.

    before i even tried this recipe i knew it was the closest to the real deal because the chocolate chips were specified and the chocolate made the difference for me. i felt the bags of chocolate chips in the grocery store until i found the one that was the same size and shape of the ones in the cookies and it was the Ghirardelli that were a perfect match.

    I just finished making these cookies. The batter was a bit thin. After cooking them they were flat. Not sure why as all my ingredients were fresh??? They were ok. Good luck to all that try them!

    I like the recipe but how do they get them to be so perfect in shape and the sides thick?

    Refrigerate the dough first, and then use a small ice cream scoop to make even balls of dough before baking.

    Sounds like you may have melted your butter. If the ingrediants get too warm or over mixed, they will turn out flat. Softened butter should be room temperature, not softened in the micro. Hope this helps.
