Whether you’re looking for a crowd-pleasing dessert or a midday snack paired with a cup of coffee, Mookie Oatmeal Cookies are the ultimate homemade treat.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until creamy and light, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined.
Fold in the oats, chocolate chips, and nuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Scoop the dough into 1 1/2 tablespoon-sized balls and place them about 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the centers look slightly underbaked.
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve and store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
