🥘 Ingredients

12 items

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup light brown sugar
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon

📝 Instructions

10 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

3. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined.

6. Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

7. Using a medium-sized cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

8. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers look slightly underbaked.

9. Remove the baking sheets from the oven and let the cookies cool on the sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
