Servings: 26 cookies
Calories: 319kcal
Ingredients
- ½ lb butter, softened (½ lb = 2 sticks)
- ¾ cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ¾ cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 2¼ cups flour
- ½ cup rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon salt *I used Maldon sea salt flakes for this
- pinch cinnamon
- 2⅔ cups Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1¾ cups chopped walnuts
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300°F
- Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar in the bowl of stand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
- Add eggs, vanilla, and lemon juice to mixer blending on a low speed for 30 seconds and increasing to a medium speed for about 2 minutes (or blend until they become light and fluffy).
- Turn mixing speed to low and begin adding flour, oats, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Blend for about 45 seconds and do not overmix.
- DoubleTree suggests removing bowl from mixer and hand stirring in chocolate chips and chopped walnuts. I turned the mixer to the lowest setting and added both to my mixing bowl, and it worked nicely.
- Portion cookie dough with scoop about 3 tablespoons ( I don't have a 3 tablespoon scoop. I substituted it with an ice cream scoop that I filled about halfway and my cookies were big and delicious). Line baking sheet and place cookies 2-3 inches apart.
- Bake for 20-23 minutes, or until edges are crisp golden brown and center is soft.
- Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for about 1 hour (I couldn't wait, so I ate mine about 10 minutes out of the oven and they were warm and perfect).
Notes
- Cooks note: You can freeze the unbaked cookies, and there's no need to thaw. Preheat oven to 300°F and place frozen cookies on parchment paper-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. I baked 6 of the cookies then portioned and froze the rest!
