How to Make Helen's Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs, then stir in the vanilla.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  6. Stir in the oatmeal, chocolate chips (or raisins), and walnuts (optional).
  7. Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between cookies.
  8. Bake for 9-11 minutes, or until golden brown. Rotate baking sheets halfway through.
