Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the egg and vanilla extract to the bowl and beat until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Avoid overmixing.
Fold in the rolled oats and chopped milk chocolate (or chocolate chips) with a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look just set. Avoid overbaking for softer cookies.
Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve the cookies warm or allow them to cool completely before storing in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
