Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Walnut Cookies

Makes about 4 dozen 2-Tbsp size cookies. I wasn't able to add in the orange zest, but I'm sure it would complement the chocolate well.

- 2 sticks butter, room temperature
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tsp salt
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 3 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking soda
- 2 tsp all-spice
- 2 cups quick oats
- 4 cups chopped, toasted walnuts
- 24 oz. chocolate chips
- 4 tsp grated orange zest

  1. Beat butter until light and fluffy. Add both sugars, vanilla, mix some more.
  2. Add in eggs, one at a time.
  3. Sift together flour, baking soda, all-spice. Add in half of flour mixture into butter, mix well. Then add the remaining half of flour.
  4. Next, add in oats, walnuts, zest, chocolate chips.
  5. Remove dough, form into 2 Tbsp-size spheres on Silpat or parchment lined pan. Refrigerate for half an hour, to enable them to remain nice and thick during the baking.
  6. Bake 12-15 minutes at 350 degrees F.
  7. Let cool on wire rack.


They turned out very well. Better than my other cookie recipes.
