Ingredients
  

For the Batter

  • 1 cup Brown Sugar Adds moisture; light or dark brown sugar can be used.

Step-by-Step Instructions for Classic Chewy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line your baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together 1 cup of softened unsalted butter and 1 cup of brown sugar for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs, one at a time, and then add 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. Whisk together 1 cup of rolled oats, 1 cup of all-purpose flour, and a pinch of salt. Gradually mix this into the wet mixture.
  5. Fold in 1 cup of chocolate chips gently until evenly distributed.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each scoop.
