Instructions

STEP 1: Preheat & Prepare

Preheat the oven to 350°F and line your favorite baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside while you make the delicious cookie dough.

STEP 2: Sugar & Butter Combination 

Using a KitchenAid, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined. Beat it for about 1 to 2 minutes.

STEP 3: Egg & Vanilla Infusion 

You can’t skip the delicious vanilla extract that adds so much flavor to these delicious cookies. Add the egg and vanilla and stir until combined.

STEP 4: Flour Addition 

Now you’re going to create the dry ingredient mixture to combine with the butter mixture. Combine the flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon and salt to a bowl and whisk together until well blended.

STEP 5: Add Dry Ingredients to Wet Ingredients

Now you’re going to make the oatmeal cookies truly come to life by combining the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. You can’t forget the best part, the chocolate! Fold in the chocolate chips.

STEP 6: Scoop & Bake

Use a 2-inch cookie scoop to scoop out the dough onto the prepared baking sheet. If you want to take these cookies up a notch, add extra chocolate chips on top of the cookie dough balls and bake in the oven. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes or until the cookies are set. 

Remove from the oven and let them cool for 10 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack. Enjoy these delicious cookies with your favorite milk!
