Before the holidays, while talking about what to bake, one of my coworker talked about the famous chocolate chip cookies given at Double Tree hotels, at the time of checking in. They had shared the recipe on social media. My daughter used this recipe and made these wonderful cookies over the holidays.
Ingredients:
2 sticks butter, softened ( 1/2 pound)
3/4 Cup + 1 Tablespoon sugar
3/4 Cup packed light brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 1/4 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
2 1/4 Cups all purpose flour
1/2 Cup rolled oats
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
Pinch cinnamon powder
2 2/3 Cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 3/4 Cups chopped walnuts
Method:
1. Sift flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a medium bowl. Keep aside.
2. Cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes.
3. Add eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice. Blend on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium speed for 2 minutes, until light and fluffy, scraping down bowl.
4. With mixer on low speed, add flour mixture, and blend for 45 seconds. Take care not to over mix.
5. Remove bowl from mixer. Stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.
6. Portion dough with a tablespoon on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, about 2 inches apart.
7. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Bake for 20-23 minutes, until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.
8. Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet before storing in an airtight container.
Note:
You can freeze the unbaked cookies.
Frozen cookies can be baked without being thawed.
You can bake a little longer if you prefer hard cookies. I prefer soft cookies.
