Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Dry Ingredients
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
Mix-ins
  • 1 cup rolled oats
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (dark, milk, or white) your choice
  • 1 cup crushed Oreos optional for extra cookie crunch

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, incorporating the vanilla as you go.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add this mixture to your wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in the oats, chocolate chips, and crushed Oreos. The dough should be thick and well mixed.
  7. Use a cookie scoop or a spoon to place dough balls onto your baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Leave space between each cookie.
Baking
  1. Pop in the oven and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges turn a light golden brown but the centers remain soft.
  2. Let the cookies cool on the sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For thicker cookies, chill the dough for 30 minutes before scooping. Avoid overbaking to maintain a gooey center.
