Ingredients

  • 1 cup Butter ((cold, cut into cubes))
  • 1 1/4 cups Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 cup Sugar
  • 2 large Eggs
  • 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
  • 2 1/2 cups Flour
  • 1 1/2 cups Rolled Oats
  • 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
  • 3/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cups Chocolate Chips

Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 385 degrees. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the cubed butter, brown sugar, and sugar for 4 minutes, until light and creamy. Scrape the sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing.

  2. 2

    Add in eggs, one at a time, and then vanilla, and mix until creamy.

  3. 3

    Fold in flour, rolled oats, cornstarch, baking soda, and salt and mix just until combined. Do not overmix or it will create too much gluten in the cookies.

  4. 4

    Fold in chocolate chips. Roll into 4-ounce, 5-ounce, or 6-ounce balls.

  5. 5

    Place on a light colored baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes or just until the edges start to turn a light golden color and the centers are slightly underdone.

  6. 6

    Optional: as soon as you remove the cookies from the oven, lightly press extra chocolate chips on top of the cookies to make them look more gourmet.
