Utensils required: cookie sheet, spatula, mixing bowl, spoonula, hand mixer, oven mitts, measuring cups
Ingredients
  • 2 sticks of butter
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 eggs
  • 2¼ cups flour
  • 1 cup rolled oats (find it in the oatmeal section; it could also be called "old-fashioned oats")
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1½ cups semisweet chocolate chips (about 9 ounces)
Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  2. Next, chop the butter into small pieces and blend it in a mixing bowl with the granulated sugar, brown sugar and vanilla extract until it's smooth and creamy.
  3. Add in the eggs, blending them into the mix. Then, slowly add in the baking soda, salt, oats and flour, blending it all into a thick batter.
  4. Use the spoonula (or just a spoon) to fold in the chocolate chips. Once they're all evenly distributed, spoon half-dollar-size dough balls onto the cookie sheet, placing each one about two inches apart.
  5. Bake the cookies in the oven for 8-10 minutes, or until they're a light, golden brown color.
