How to Make Big Batch Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line several baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy. This is where a stand mixer is highly recommended!
  3. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
  6. Stir in the oats and chocolate chips.
  7. Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie.
  8. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. (Note: Baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven. Start checking at 10 minutes.)
  9. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. Once completely cool, store in an airtight container at room temperature for 1-2 days or freeze for longer storage. Enjoy!
