Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 0.5 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 cup dried cranberries (Craisins)
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until the mixture is light and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and beat until just combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, dried cranberries, and chocolate chips using a wooden spoon or rubber spatula until evenly distributed.
Using a medium cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers appear 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 them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week, or freeze for longer storage.
