Description
Delicious homemade chocolate chip oatmeal cookies.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 1/2 cups old fashioned oats (see notes)
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350º F.
- Cream butter, sugar and brown sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs and vanilla until everything is well combined.
- Mix in flour, oats, baking soda, and salt until it is just combined.
- Fold in chocolate chips until evenly distributed.
- I like to chill the dough here for 30 minutes to make sure the cookies are nice and thick. This step is optional.
- Scoop balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet and bake cookies for about 10 minutes. The edges will be golden.
- Remove from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Old fashioned oats provide a heartier texture.
