I am happy to see the Doubletree recipe, because we recently stayed at one in Niagara Falls, NY and we all wished we could have had another cookie! Since I told my husband there was oatmeal in them and he disagreed, It is nice to see my taster was spot on! One of the best things about our cookie treat that day was that the cookies were baked all the way trhough! We dislike those soggy in the middle cookies that seem to have taken over the cookie counters!
