Equipment

stand mixer or hand mixer
mixing bowl
baking sheet
cooling rack

Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup light-brown sugar packed
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 Tablespoon vanilla
  • cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • 3 cups rolled oats
  • 2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1 cup raisins optional

Instructions

  • Using a stand mixer, cream together butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add eggs and vanilla. Mix until fully incorporated.
  • Add flour, baking soda and baking powder. Use a fork to work the baking powder and soda into the flour, then turn the mixer on low to incorporate fully.
  • Add rolled oats and chocolate chips (and raisins if using), again mix on low to incorporate.
  • Using a cookie scoop, place cookie dough on two cookie sheets. There should be room for 12 cookies per sheet. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350˚F.
  • Bake cookies for 10-11 minutes, until just golden*
  • While cookies are baking, scoop remaining cookie dough onto parchment paper or a parchment lined container. Layer if needed with parchment between the layers. Place in freezer.
  • Once first batch of cookies are cooked, remove from oven and place onto a cooling rack.
  • After 2 minutes, remove baked cookies from cookie sheet and place on cooling rack to finish cooling.
  • Remove second batch of cookies once baked and cool as directed in the above steps.
  • Continue this process until all cookies are baked, or simply leave raw dough in the freezer to pop out and bake at a later date. Add 1 minute bake time to completely frozen cookie dough.
  • Store baked and cooled cookies in a sealed container for up to a week.

Notes

  • *Bake time will vary slightly depending on the size of the cookie, so watch carefully.
  • Oatmeal chocolate chip cookies can be enjoyed room temperature, but are extra decadent warmed up! Place in a toaster oven or air fryer for 1 minute to soften and melt the chocolate chips.
