Yay, It’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Day and This Hotel is Offering a FREE Cookie

Yay, It’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Day (Aug 4th) and DoubleTree by Hilton is Celebrating

FREE Cookie

Yay, It’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Day (Aug 4th) and DoubleTree by Hilton properties across the U.S will offer a complimentary original, warm chocolate chip cookie, or the allergy-friendly version to anyone who stops by participating hotels across the U.S. today, no reservation required.

But while the cookie’s soft texture, oats and abundance of chocolate chips have earned a loyal following for decades, one ingredient often surprises even the biggest fans.

The secret? Lemon juice.

¼ teaspoon of freshly squeezed lemon juice is mixed into the dough, helping create the distinctive flavor and texture that have made the DoubleTree chocolate chip cookie a beloved part of the travel experience. The ingredient may seem unexpected, but it plays a small, but important, role in the recipe’s well-known flavor.

For food lovers, the giveaway is also a chance to taste one of the cookie’s most unexpected ingredients: freshly squeezed lemon juice. The subtle addition helps activate the baking soda, encourages browning and sharpens the flavor.

More than 20 million DoubleTree chocolate chip cookies are enjoyed annually, and today, everyone can get a taste of the brand’s signature warm welcome – and its unexpected citrus twist – no reservation or hotel stay required.
