Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 0.5 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 2 cups old-fashioned oats
• 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 0.5 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, cream the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer on medium speed.

Step 3

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add in the vanilla extract and continue mixing until fully incorporated.

Step 4

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

Step 5

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.

Step 6

Fold in the old-fashioned oats, semi-sweet chocolate chips, and the optional chopped nuts, if using, using a spatula or wooden spoon.

Step 7

Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading during baking.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers still appear slightly soft.

Step 9

Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 2-3 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Enjoy your Gov Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies with a glass of milk, coffee, or tea. Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
