Doubletree Chocolate Chip Cookies

 

1/2 cup rolled oats

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

3/4 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

2 eggs

3 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts

 

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grind oats in a food processor or blender

until fine. Combine the ground oats with the flour, baking soda, salt

and cinnamon in a medium bowl.

Cream together the butter, sugars, vanilla and lemon juice in another

medium bowl with an electric mixer. Add the eggs and mix until smooth.

Stir the dry mixture into the wet mixture and blend well. Add the

chocolate chips and nuts to the dough and mix by hand until the

ingredients are well incorporated.

 

Spoon rounded 1/4 cup portions onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Place the

scoops about 2 inches apart. There is no need to press the dough flat.

Bake for 16 to 18 minutes or until cookies are light brown and soft in

the middle.

 

Store in a sealed container when cool to keep soft.

 

Makes 20 cookies.

Q. They weren't invented in France, so why does everybody

call them " French fries? "

A. The " French " in French fries doesn't refer to the country

of origin. It refers to the way in which this side dish

is prepared. Food that is cut into strips is said to be

" Frenched. " Since French fries are strips of potato that

have been fried, they became known as French fried

potatoes, or " French fries. "
