Official DoubleTree Chocolate Chip Cookies
The official recipe for the DoubleTree Signature Chocolate Chip Cookies was released by Hilton during the pandemic so families could bake at home together!
Ingredients
- 8 oz butter softened (2 sticks)
- 3/4 cup plus 1 Tbsp white sugar
- 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 1-1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 2-1/4 cups flour
- 1/2 cup rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1 tsp salt
- Pinch of cinnamon
- 1-3/4 cups chopped walnuts
- 2-2/3 cups Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper
- Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar on medium speed for 2 minutes
- Add the eggs, vanilla and lemon juice and mix on low speed for 30 seconds, then on medium for 2 minutes
- In a smaller bowl whisk together the flour, oats, baking soda, salt and cinnamon
- Add the dry flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix on low speed for 45 seconds or so. (Don't overmix.)
- Stir in the chopped walnuts and the chocolate chips
- Use a large (3 Tbsp) cookie scoop to portion out the dough, placing cookies about 2 inches apart
- Bake at 300 for 20-23 minutes until the edges are brown but the center is still soft
- Allow to cool on the baking sheet for one hour before serving
Notes
A couple of tips for making this recipe:
- Don't stray from the original recipe - use real butter and real lemon juice. The recipe didn't specify salted or unsalted butter but I used salted and they were DIVINE.
- Measure ingredients carefully! Any time you are baking, the ingredients have to be measured properly to get a good result.
- Bake these cookies on parchment paper, not silicone mats. Silicone mats can make some cookie recipes spread too much. Parchment works better for these.
- You can reheat a cookie in the microwave for 20 seconds or so to help it get that "just out of the oven" taste back!
