Method
Preparation
- In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, stirring continuously until it turns a golden brown with a nutty aroma, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the brown sugar and granulated sugar. Pour in the brown butter, making sure to scrape all the delicious brown bits from the saucepan.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and creamy.
Mixing Dry Ingredients
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the rolled oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually fold this dry mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Final Steps
- Fold in the chocolate chips, reserving some to sprinkle on top before baking.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared sheet, ensuring space for spreading.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Allow to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Notes
Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking for better shape and flavor. Cookies can be frozen in layers to preserve freshness.
