Servings: 24 cookies
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 14 minutes
Chilling Time: 2 hours
Total Time: 2 hours 34 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups quick oats
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips, semi-sweet

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Whisk flour, baking soda and salt together in a medium bowl. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter and both sugars on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat until combined.
  • Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat just until combined. Stir in the oats and chocolate chips. Chill the dough for at least two hours, or overnight for best results.
  • Using a 1 1/2 inch scoop, pack the dough in the scoop and place rounded balls of dough on the parchment lined baking sheet about two inches apart, 12 cookies per sheet. Bake for 12-14 minutes, until cookies are slightly golden.

Notes

Add-ins and substitutions for Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies:
BUTTERSCOTCH CHIPS- This is a favorite combination in our house. Substitute butterscotch chips instead of the chocolate chips. Wow, these cookies smell amazing and taste so buttery and delicious!
RAISINS- This is the classic pairing, raisins and oatmeal. Always delicious and always the traditional way to go with oatmeal cookies. Double the fun and use raisins and chocolate chips together.
DRIED CRANBERRIES- Yum! They add a POP of fruity flavor. Stir them in with white chocolate chips and you've got a cookie that is sweet and full of bright fruit flavors.
NUTS- Looking for cookies that are higher in protein? Add chopped peanuts or walnuts to this recipe to amp up the crunch factor and the protein content.
