Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 large Eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 3 cups Old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1.5 cups Chocolate chips or M&M candies
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the softened unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Stir in the rolled oats by hand until evenly incorporated, then fold in your choice of chocolate chips or M&M candies.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look just set. Be careful not to overbake.
Remove from the oven and let the cookies rest on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
Serve immediately, or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
