Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup light brown sugar
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1.5 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter together with the light brown sugar and granulated sugar until creamy and well blended.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition, then mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and mix until just combined.
Stir in the oats, chocolate chips, and chopped walnuts (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Drop rounded tablespoons of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they are lightly golden 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 cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
