I love the DoubleTree hotel signature cookies - they are a combonation of chocolate chip, nut, and oatmeal. Yummy... when you check in you get a warm cookie and I attended a conference at hte hotel in Toronto and we had them for break each day. I have a recipe I found on-lin but have not made them yet.

I found the recipe for the DoubleTree hotel cookies on-line. Here it is:

Ingredients:

1/2 cup rolled oats
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. cinnamon
1 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup brown sugar, packed
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1-1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp. lemon juice
2 eggs
3 cups semi-sweet, chocolate chips
1-1/2 cups chopped walnuts

Directions:
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 ingredients are well blended.

For the best results, chill the dough overnight in the refrigerator before baking the cookies.

Spoon rounded 1/4 cup portions onto an ungreased cookie sheet. Place the scoops about 2 inches apart. Bake in a 350°F oven for 16-18 minutes or until cookies are light brown and soft in the middle. Store in a sealed container when cool to keep soft.

A friend gave me this recipe and it is so easy for me or my daughters (age 11 & 13 yrs old)to make. (From Sheila in St Margaret's Bay)

Nancy B's Great Cookies

2 pkgs of choc chips and 1 pkg peanut butter chips
OR for peanut free families
3 pkgs choc chips

1 cup of peanuts (OR for peanut free families - 1 cup of soy nuts or 1 cup of sunflower seeds or 1 cup of pumpkin seeds or 1 cup of anything)

1 bag of LAYS Ripple chips(Taste the best but any brand works)

Melt the chocolate and peanut butter chips in the top of a double boiler.

Remove from heat.

Add the nuts or seeds.

Add the bag of potato chips (which have been sort of crushed up while still in the bag)

Stir well. Work fairly quick.

Place on waxed sheets on cookie tray in "blobs" and place in fridge to cool.

Store in fridge ...but freezes really well too.
