Ingredients

The following ingredients have 12 Servings
  • 1 cup salted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup light brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 3 cups old-fashioned oats (not quick or instant oats)
  • 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for 2 minutes using the paddle attachment of a stand mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs and vanilla, then beat again, scraping down the sides of the bowl.
  • Add the oats, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt, mixing again until combined.
  • Stir in chocolate chips, then use a large cookie scoop to scoop balls of dough and space them a few inches apart on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Bake for 9-11 minutes, until brown around the edges but the middle still looks slightly underbaked. The cookies will continue to set up as they cool, but underbaking helps them stay soft and chewy.
