Instructions

Warm the oven up to 175°F (350°F). Place baking mats or parchment paper on the bottom of a baking sheet.

Melt the butter and mix it with the brown sugar and granulated sugar in a big bowl until the mixture is light and fluffy.

Add the eggs one at a time, making sure that each one is fully mixed in before adding the next. Add the vanilla extract and mix well.

Beat the flour, baking soda, and salt together with a whisk in a different bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just mixed.

Add the oats and chocolate chips and mix them in until they are spread out evenly in the cookie dough.

Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop dough onto the baking sheet in round tablespoons, leaving about 2 inches between each one.

After the oven is hot, bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden brown.

After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way.

You can enjoy these tasty chocolate chip oatmeal cookies with milk or coffee after they have cooled down.

Tips for Perfect Cookies

If you want to mix ingredients more smoothly and get more taste into the mixture, let them sit out at room temperature.

If you don’t want tough cookies, don’t mix the dough too much after you add the dry ingredients. If you want chewier cookies, bake them a little less than needed and let them cool all the way on the baking sheet.

To make your cookies unique, you can add chopped nuts, dried fruit, or even sea salt on top before baking.

You can keep extra cookies at room temperature for up to a week in an airtight container, or you can freeze them for longer keeping.

Notes

If you like your cookies crispy, slightly smooth the dough before baking and bake them for a few minutes longer.

For a stronger taste, you can use dark chocolate chips. For a fun twist, you can switch out the chocolate chips for white chocolate or butterscotch chips.

You can easily double this recipe to make more cookies, which you can then share with family and friends or put in the freezer to enjoy later.
