Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Rolled oats
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.75 cup Honey
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 Egg
- 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, honey, and brown sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet mixture, beating until fully incorporated.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies.
If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Gently press each cookie slightly to flatten, as these cookies won't spread much during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are just set around the edges but still soft in the center.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
