How To Make These Apple Walnut Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

This recipe has a dozen and a half ingredients. The first task is to gather them all.

An apple is peeled, cored and cut in half. One half of the apple is grated. The grated apple is set aside. The other half is likely eaten.

Unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar are added to a stand mixer. Using the paddle attachment, the mix is creamed on medium speed for about 3 minutes. Mixer speed is reduced to low. Egg, molasses, apple butter (optional), and vanilla bean paste are added to the sugar mixture and beaten on low, long enough to incorporate.

All-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, fine sea salt, ground ginger, ground cloves, and ground nutmeg are added to a large mixing bowl, and whisked to combine. Old-fashioned oats and chopped walnuts are stirred into the flour mix. The sugar mixture is added to the flour mixture and folded in using a large spatula. The reserved grated apple is folded in.

The cookie dough is refrigerated for 4 hours, or up to several days, to firm and meld.

Cold cookie dough is scooped, using a 2 tablespoon scoop, and arranged on parchment lined cookie sheets. The scoops of dough are topped with dark chocolate chips. The cookies are baked in a 350 degrees F. oven for 12 minutes, or until the cookies are set.

Cookies store well in an airtight container. Freeze these cookies in a freezer proof plastic bag for up to a month.
