Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 1/2 cups butter (softened)
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar
  • 3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup old-fashioned oatmeal (uncooked)
  • 3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
  • 3 cups Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips ( -- Ghirardelli)
  • 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the butter in a large bowl and cream lightly with an electric mixer. Add the sugars and beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes. 
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the vanilla and lemon juice and mix well. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, oatmeal, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
  •  Add to the creamed butter mixture and stir well to blend. Add chocolate chips and walnuts and stir to combine. Using a 1/4 cup measure or a 2-oz ice cream scoop, drop the batter on the parchment-lined pans, leaving 2 -3 inches between each cookie. 
  • Bake for 13 - 15 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Remove from parchment and cool on wire racks. Yield: approximately 4 dozen
