"I have long believed that good food, good eating is all about risk. Whether we're talking about unpasteurized Stilton, raw oysters or working for organized crime 'associates,' food, for me, has always been an adventure."--Anthony Bourdain

Ingredients:  
Ingredients:  
1 c butter, at room temperature
1/2 c water
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
3/4 c brown sugar
3/4 c granulated sugar
1 c unsifted flour
1 tsp baking soda

Directions:
Directions:
In a large bowl, beat butter with sugar and brown sugar at medium speed until creamy and lightened in color (about 4 minutes)

Add vanilla and egg. Mix on low speed until well incorporated.

Sift flour with baking soda, salt and spices. Add to creamed mixture just until combined. Stir in oats and fold in chocolate chips and walnuts. Refrigerate until firm

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Roll into golfball sized balls and flatten on greased cookie sheet or parchment paper so final cookie size is approximately 5-6 inches across. Place in oven and check after 8-9 minutes. Watch carefully and take them out when they are browned to your satisfaction. They should be moist and chewy. Baking them longer will darken them and dry them out.

Personal Notes:
I have stayed in lots of hotels during my life as an educational support representative, then as a consultant for IBM. Doubletree hotel gives you a warm cookie when you check in and they make them available for purchase by the tin. I bought a tin and came up with this recipe based on the ingredients listed on the can. They're pretty close to the originals...and good in any case.
