Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2½ cups rolled oats
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter (at room temperature)
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
4 ounces milk chocolate (grated or finely chopped)
1½ cups chopped walnuts

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line three baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Blend the oats in a food processor or blender to a fine powder. In a medium bowl, whisk together the blended oats with the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy, 3-4 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract. Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the flour mixture, beating just until incorporated. With a rubber spatula, fold in the chocolate chips, grated chocolate and walnuts.
  • Roll the dough into 2-ounce balls (or about 2 heaping tablespoonfuls worth) and place about 2 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake one sheet at a time until the edges are set but the center still looks undone, about 10 minutes. Cool the cookies completely on the baking sheets. The cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days (they can also be frozen for up to 2 months).

THE $250 COOKIE RECIPE



The $250 Cookie Recipe image

Almost everybody has heard the one about the woman lunching at the Neiman Marcus Cafe in Dallas, who enjoyed the chocolate chip cookies so much that she asked for the recipe. For "only two-fifty," the waitress said, it was hers. But when the credit card bill arrived, the woman found the total near $300. Turns out the recipe cost $250, the story goes. In 1997, after years of enduring the myth, Neiman Marcus came up with a recipe - and gave it out for free. It's a delicious variation on chocolate chip cookies, using ground oatmeal, nuts and adding extra chocolate with a grated Hershey bar (you can use any brand you love).

Tips:

  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough helps to prevent the cookies from spreading too much in the oven. This will result in a thicker, chewier cookie.
  • Use high-quality chocolate: The chocolate is the star of these cookies, so it's important to use high-quality chocolate. Look for a chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60%. You can use dark chocolate, semisweet chocolate, or bittersweet chocolate.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in a tough cookie. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: Baking the cookies at a high temperature will help to create a chewy cookie. Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes.

Conclusion:

The Neiman Marcus cookie is a classic chocolate chip cookie that is sure to please everyone. With its rich, chocolatey flavor and chewy texture, this cookie is perfect for any occasion. Whether you're baking them for a party or just enjoying them as a snack, these cookies are sure to be a hit.
