These are the tastiest cookies ever!

Ingredients

1 1/2 cup butter -- softened
1 1/2 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
4 eggs
2 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
1 teaspoon lemon juice
3 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup old-fashioned oatmeal -- uncooked
3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
1 teaspoon Salt
1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
3 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips -- Ghirardelli
1 1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Instructions

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.

Yield: approximately 4 dozen

You guys are missing one key ingredient. Double Tree adds some walnut flour to their cookie recipe. You’ll never get the recipe spot on if you forget the walnut flour.

I have baked these cookie using this same recipe for over 5 years now, my family & friends love them. One year I baked over 80 dozen of these cookies for a college professor who took them to the OSU tailgating parties. I have never had any problems with these cookies ever being dry. Even if they turn out to be a little thin they are still delicious especially with a glass of cold milk;)

Double Tree? Really!!?? No way…I have made this twice and I don’t think I will be making them a 3rd time. The 1st time I made them, they turned out flat and somewhat dry, like one of the comments made. And I did not microwave the butter – so that could not have a negative effect. I vowed never to try them again – but about 5 months after, I decided I will give them another shot. So last night, I made them and same results as before. I had some extra batter so I placed them in the freezer overnight and baked them this morning. They were not as flat but I find them a little dry and not as delicious as the Double Tree’s. I ended up trashing all the cookies. Not sure if I would waste anymore ingredients on these!

Turns out best if you freeze the batter first, then bake them once dough is frozen. It will keep the cookies thick! [I work at the doubletree, and this is the trick for the thickness!]

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.

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!

  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.

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.
