Thanks to my friend Anna at Cookie Madness for posting this recipe. These are excellent and very much like the real Doubletree cookies. A word of warning, though. The cookies will not stay fresh for more than a day. I did not have any brittle bits, and I did not miss them. Be sure to refrigerate the dough for at least 3 hours.
Ingredients
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 scant teaspoon salt
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold – cut up
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup Bits of Brittle
3/4 cups walnuts toasted and chopped
1 1/8 cups oatmeal (measure, then grind in a coffee grinder or food processor)
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 scant teaspoon salt
4 ounces (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold – cut up
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup dark chocolate chips
1/2 cup Bits of Brittle
3/4 cups walnuts toasted and chopped
1 1/8 cups oatmeal (measure, then grind in a coffee grinder or food processor)
Instructions
Mix flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt, set aside.
Cream butter and sugars in large mixer bowl. Add egg and vanilla and stir until mixed.
Add flour mixture and oatmeal gradually, stirring until incorporated. Stir in Heath Bits, Chocolate Chips, and nuts. Scoop dough up with a quarter cup measure and shape into big balls. Press them slightly to make discs. Set the discs on a plate and chill for a few hours or until firm.
Place on parchment lined cookie sheets about 3 inches apart. Bake at 375 degrees for 8-13 minutes. Cookies should still be slightly underdone. Move to wax paper lined counter to cool, do not use wire racks.
