Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Rolled oats
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 0.5 cup Cocoa powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 0.75 cup Honey
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 cup Dark chocolate chips (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the rolled oats, all-purpose flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, honey, and brown sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the egg and vanilla extract to the wet mixture, beating until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies.

Step 6

If using, fold in the dark chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness.

Step 7

Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

Step 8

Gently press each cookie slightly to flatten, as these cookies won't spread much during baking.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookies are just set around the edges but still soft in the center.

Step 10

Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 11

Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
