What are the steps to
Step 1: Preheat & Prep Pan
Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and makes cleanup easy. Is parchment paper a lifesaver?
Step 2: Cream Butter and Sugars
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light. Set aside. What should I do if I have an electric mixer? Don’t rush this step – it’s crucial for the right cookie texture!
Step 3: Add Egg, Vanilla and Lemon Juice
Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until well combined. What is the best way to make sure everything is evenly mixed in a bowl? What are some of the best lemon juice recipes?
Step 4: Combine Dry Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. This ensures that the baking soda is evenly distributed throughout the flour. Why do people like salty bites?
Step 5: Slowly Incorporate Dry Ingredients
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix! Overmixing gluten in flour can result in hard cookies.
Step 6: Fold in Oats, Walnuts and Chocolate Chips.
Gently fold in the rolled oats, chopped walnuts and chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Is there a pattern to the Make sure the oats and nuts are evenly distributed, so every cookie has a little bit of everything.
Step 7: Drop by Rounded Tablespoons
Do not overdo the dough. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between. I like to use a cookie scoop for uniform size and even baking. This is important so they all get done at the same time.
Step 8: Bake
Bake for 13-15 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are still slightly soft. Don’t overbake them! They will continue to set up as they cool. If your oven is running hot or cold, keep an eye on them and adjust the baking time.
Step 9: Cool and Enjoy
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to cling film. If they are too dry, remove them from the oven and let them cool completely. To cool completely. If you’re like me, eat one (or two) while they’ve still warm and gooey. When they are warm and gooey, they’re amazing!
What to Serve It With
These Doubletree cookies are pretty amazing on their own, but if you’re looking to take things to the next level, here are a few ideas:
For a cozy night in: Pair them with a tall glass of cold milk (almond milk works great too!), a cup of hot chocolate, or a mug of your favorite herbal tea. This is my go-to after a long day.
For a simple dessert: Serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or a dollop of whipped cream. A little sprinkle of sea salt on top adds a nice touch!
For a party: Arrange them on a platter with other desserts like brownies, cupcakes, and fruit. They’re always a crowd-pleaser.

Top Tips for Perfecting Your Doubletree Cookies
Alright, let’s talk about some insider secrets that will take your Doubletree cookies from good to absolutely amazing. I’ve made these cookies countless times, and I’ve learned a few tricks along the way:
Butter Matters: Use high-quality butter for the best flavor. I prefer unsalted butter so I can control the amount of salt in the recipe.
Don’t Overmix: Overmixing develops the gluten in the flour, resulting in tough cookies. Mix until just combined.
Chill Out: For even thicker and chewier cookies, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This also helps prevent the cookies from spreading too thin.
Baking Sheet Bliss: Always bake on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents sticking and ensures even baking.
Oven Temperature is Key: Make sure your oven is properly preheated before baking the cookies. An accurate oven temperature is crucial for consistent results.
Don’t Overbake: These cookies are best when they’re slightly soft in the center. Don’t overbake them, or they’ll be dry and crumbly.
Salt Bae: A sprinkle of sea salt on top of the cookies before baking enhances the sweetness and adds a nice salty-sweet contrast.
These are just a few tricks and tips that I have learned over time. I really hope you enjoy!
Storing and Reheating Tips
Want to make sure your Doubletree cookies stay fresh and delicious? Here’s the lowdown on storing and reheating:
Room Temperature: Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. I like to put a piece of parchment paper between layers to prevent them from sticking together.
Refrigerator Storage: For longer storage, you can keep the cookies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week. Just be sure to let them come to room temperature before serving.
Freezer Instructions: These cookies freeze beautifully! Wrap them individually in plastic wrap and then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They can be stored in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw them at room temperature before serving.
Reheating: To reheat, simply pop them in the microwave for a few seconds or warm them in a low oven until heated through. Be careful not to overheat them, or they’ll become dry and hard.
I would suggest to eat them right away but, sometimes, that isn’t possible.
