There’s nothing quite like freshly baked cookies to brighten anyone’s day! Even though no one specifically requested it, I decided to bake a batch of my favorite Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies—perfect for sharing with my lunch date and a sweet way to stand by my Alagang Mommy Pehpot mantra. These cookies strike the perfect balance between the rich sweetness of chocolate and the comforting texture of oatmeal.
Want to know the secret to these mouth-watering cookies? Let me walk you through the recipe and tips I personally swear by.
Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie Ingredients and Special Tips
These Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies have a few small twists that make all the difference in texture and flavor. Here are a few of my go-to preferences:
- Softened butter over melted butter: Using softened butter instead of melted keeps the dough thick and makes the cookies chewier.
- Salted butter, no added salt: I skip the extra salt and opt for salted butter to streamline the recipe. It adds just the right touch without overpowering the sweetness.
- Pure brown sugar only: Brown sugar gives these cookies a deeper, richer flavor, and helps keep the cookies soft and chewy.
Now, let’s get baking!
Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookie Recipe
Ingredients:
- 1 ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 cup softened butter (salted)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 2 cups chocolate chips
Instructions:
- Cream the butter and sugar: In a large bowl, mix 1 ½ cups of brown sugar with 1 cup of softened butter until smooth and fluffy.
- Add the vanilla and eggs: Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, followed by the eggs, mixing until everything is well combined.
- Incorporate the dry ingredients: Gradually mix in 2 ½ cups of flour and 1 teaspoon of baking soda. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the cookie texture.
- Fold in the chocolate chips: Finally, stir in 2 cups of chocolate chips, making sure they’re evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Baking Options:
- You can bake the cookies right away or store the dough in the freezer for a day or two for even more developed flavors. Just thaw before baking!
- Baking time: Place your cookies on a lined baking sheet and bake at 190°C for 8–10 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. Let them cool for a few minutes before indulging!
