Meet your next favorite treat: Raggedy Robin Cookies, a delightful blend of chewy rolled oats, rich semi-sweet chocolate chips, and the optional crunch of chopped walnuts. These easy-to-make cookies come together in just 25 minutes, featuring a buttery base balanced with brown sugar’s caramel-like sweetness and a touch of vanilla. Perfectly golden at the edges yet soft in the center, their irresistible texture and flavor make them an instant crowd-pleaser. Whether you’re baking for a weeknight indulgence, a family gathering, or just because, these cookies offer the ultimate homemade comfort. Best of all, they’re versatile—add or skip the walnuts for a nut-free version!
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, cream together the unsalted butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Add in the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the rolled oats, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and chopped walnuts (if using) by hand until evenly distributed.
Using a tablespoon or cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie.
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look slightly underbaked.
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.
Store the cooled cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days at room temperature.
