Ingredients

  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 3 cup old-fashioned oats
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 10 oz. cinnamon chips

Method

  • 1. Preheat oven to 3500.
  • 2. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
  • 3. Beat in eggs and vanilla.
  • 4. Combine oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.
  • 5. Stir in chips.
  • 6. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto un-greased cookie sheet 2 inches apart.
  • 7. Bake 11-13 minutes or until lightly browned.
  • 8. Cool on wire rack.
  • Note: The key to really good oatmeal cookies (or chocolate chip cookies, for that matter), is not to over-bake them; take them out when the edges are browned, but the middle still looks just a little bit not-done.
