For the first time ever, you can finally make all of the delicious food from your favorite places around the world. 

First, DoubleTree cookies have a passionate fan following and a long history. More than 30 million are consumed every year.

“We know this is an anxious time for everyone,” said Shawn McAteer, senior vice president and global head, DoubleTree by Hilton. “A warm chocolate chip cookie can’t solve everything, but it can bring a moment of comfort and happiness.

“We hope families enjoy the fun of baking together during their time at home, and we look forward to welcoming all our guests with a warm DoubleTree cookie when travel resumes.”

Makes 26 cookies

½ pound butter, softened (2 sticks)

¾ cup + 1 tablespoon granulated sugar

¾ cup packed light brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 ¼ teaspoons vanilla extract

¼ teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

2 ¼ cups flour

1/2 cup rolled oats

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

Pinch cinnamon

2 2/3 cups Nestle Tollhouse semi-sweet chocolate chips

1 3/4 cups chopped walnuts

Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes.

Add eggs, vanilla and lemon juice, blending with mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until light and fluffy, scraping down bowl.

With mixer on low speed, add flour, oats, baking soda, salt and cinnamon, blending for about 45 seconds. Don’t overmix.

Remove bowl from mixer and stir in chocolate chips and walnuts.

Portion dough with a scoop (about 3 tablespoons) onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper about 2 inches apart.

Preheat oven to 300°F. Bake for 20 to 23 minutes, or until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.

Remove from oven and cool on baking sheet for about 1 hour.

Cook’s note: You can freeze the unbaked cookies, and there’s no need to thaw. Preheat oven to 300°F and place frozen cookies on parchment paper-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Bake until edges are golden brown and center is still soft.

The Second is the Toy Story Land Grilled Cheese from Disney: 

  • Here’s the full recipe, including the dream cheese spread, the garlic spread and the three-cheese sandwich.
Disney released the official recipe for the grilled cheese sandwich that is available at Toy Story Land at Disney Parks.

The Churros at Disney: 

Walt Disney Chili: 

The recipe reads as follows:

  • 2 pounds of ground beef
  • 2 sliced onions
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 12 cup of oil
  • 1 cup of chopped celery
  • 1 tablespoon of chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon of paprika
  • 1 tablespoon of dry mustard
  • 1 large can of solid pack tomatoes
  • 2 pounds of dry pink beans
  • Salt

How to make it:

  • This is key. You’ll want to soak the beans together overnight. Then, drain them out, add water. Simmer the onions. Prepare the sauce, add in ingredients and let it simmer for an hour. Add sauce and beans in for 30 minutes.

The Dole Whip pineapple treat: 

The recipe (for a single serving) reads at the following:

  • 1 big scoop of ice cream
  • 4 oz of pineapple juice
  • 2 cups of frozen pineapple
  • Add all ingredients to a blender until it’s a thick drink.
  • Add your swirl and then you’re done.

Just a note: The original Dole Whip is dairy-free, so you’ll want to use dairy-free ice cream if you want to make the real option. You can check out Dole’s official recipe or see Dole’s official soft serve mix for more information.

Hey It’s Ryan, let me start off by saying…YES, I was born and raised in Wixom, Michigan although a lot of listeners like to joke that I am from Arizona. WCSX has always been my radio home, I have been at the station since I was a 23-year-old intern, co-host of Big Jim’s House, married with kids. Family and radio are what I love, but don’t get me started on golf! Like some, I have become obsessed with golf and you can hear all about that on “The Ball Washer Pod” right here on WCSX. One of my other passions is helping out the Vets. Since coming to WCSX I have been apart of raising hundreds of thousands for local vet groups. Other than that, I am a goofy guy, loving life, my family and talking to you on the radio. Ryan writes about golf, family and what happens on “Big Jim’s House.”
