MCLEAN, Va. - For the first time ever, DoubleTree by Hilton is sharing the official bake-at-home recipe for the beloved and delicious DoubleTree Chocolate Chip Cookie, so at-home bakers can create the warm and comforting treat in their own kitchens.
The hotel chain is famous for greeting guests with warm chocolate chip cookies, but since the popular treats arrived in 1986, DoubleTree has refused to give up the details. “Revealing the recipe was a big discussion,” admits the chain’s global head Shawn McAteer. Try the recipe yourself, and take note of the secret ingredient: lemon juice!
Copycat recipes have been shared online for years, but only now has Hilton released the official version to create at home. “We know this is an anxious time for everyone,” said Shawn McAteer, senior vice president and global head, DoubleTree by Hilton.
More than 30 million are consumed every year, and the DoubleTree chocolate chip cookie even became the first food to be baked in orbit during experiments aboard the International Space Station.
