Ingredients
-
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
-
1 cup brown sugar, packed
-
1/2 cup granulated sugar
-
2 large eggs
-
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
-
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
-
1 teaspoon baking soda
-
1/2 teaspoon salt
-
3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
-
1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
-
Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this to the wet mixture.
-
Stir in the oats and chocolate chips until evenly combined.
-
Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing about 2 inches apart.
-
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft.
-
Let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
-
For extra texture, you can mix in 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts or pecans.
-
These cookies freeze well! Store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
-
Use quick oats for a softer texture or stick with rolled oats for a chewier bite.
