  • whisk
  • stand mixer
  • hand mixer
  • spatula

Ingredients
  

Dry Ingredients

  • 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 0.5 tsp salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter softened at room temperature
  • 0.75 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 0.5 cup granulated white sugar
  • 2 large eggs at room temperature
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats and set them aside.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes, until the mixture is light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, fully incorporating each before adding the next, then beat in the vanilla extract.
  • With the mixer on low speed, gradually add the flour mixture to the butter mixture, mixing just until no dry streaks of flour remain. Use a sturdy spatula to fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
  • Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading. Bake the cookies, one sheet at a time, for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look just set.
  • Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheet for 5 minutes to firm up. Then, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes to firm up before transferring.
