In reply to Mary. Hi Mary! I will have to look up black walnut extract, I haven't heard of it before. So happy you are able to make these for him.

I’m making these for a second time, but this time I’m using half chocolate half peanut butter chips. I’m very excited! Thanks for the great recipe!

My husband’s absolute, hands-down favorite cookie from his childhood. His mom always put in a teaspoon of black walnut extract, so for him, they MUST have that to be the ultimate. (I’ve just ordered some more.)
We’ve been married for 40 years, and his mother is no longer able to make these for him, but I, too, have a baking addiction. We’ll keep him in cookies.

In reply to Cyd.

Hi Cyd! If you’re at high elevation you will need to make some adjustments to the recipe and it might take some experimentation on your part. I’ve never baked in high altitude, but here are some tips: https://www.kingarthurflour.com/learn/high-altitude-baking.html

Here are some general guidelines if you’re at 3000ft:
• Increase the oven temperature by 15-25F 
• Decrease baking time by 5-10mins. 
• Decrease sugar by 1 Tbsp per cup 
• Decrease baking powder by 1/8 tsp per cup 
• Increase liquid by 1-2 Tbsp per cup 
• Add 1 Tbsp of flour

If you’re higher up than 3000ft, you will need to increase/decrease the ingredients incrementally. Again, it will require some experimentation. There are some great resources for high altitude baking out there.

I’m at high elevation and the 1 tbsp cookie size was way too small. They didn’t get bigger in the oven. I had to use an ice cream scoop instead.

Really good! When my mixture was ready to put on cookie sheets, two eggs on the counter stared at me.. All I could do was mix them into the batter. It worked, and the cookies were great.

In reply to Nancy. Hi Nancy! I haven't used them myself so I can't say for sure but I suspect they would be fine. They may change the texture a bit though.

Can Quick Oats be used in this recipe?
