Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients:

13 tsps. butter at room temperature

3/4 cup light brown sugar packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

2 tsps. vanilla extract

1 3/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour

2 eggs

1 1/2 tsps. baking soda

1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/2 tsps. ground cinnamon 

2 1/2 cups whole rolled oats

Parchment Paper

Optional/Not Pictured - (1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips, my brother-in-law's favorite add on)

Directions:

Step 1: Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Using your mixer with the paddle attachment cream the butter, vanilla, and sugars together.  Then add baking soda, salt and eggs.  

Step 2: Slowly incorporate flour, once it is blended evenly add in your whole oats.  

Step 3: Line your cookie sheet with the parchment paper, then use a small ice cream scoop and place dough 2 inches apart.

Step 4: Bake for 8-10 minutes depending on your oven, remove when edges are golden brown.  Let cool for 3-4 minutes before removing or the cookies will fall apart.  

Step 5: Enjoy!
