Thick And Crunchy Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies Recipes

SOFT AND CHEWY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• In a large bowl using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the butter on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the brown sugar and granulated sugar and beat on medium-high speed until creamed, about 2 minutes. Add the eggs, molasses, and vanilla and beat on high speed until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and up the bottom of the bowl and beat again as needed to combine.
• Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. With the mixer running on low speed, beat in the oats and both types of chocolate chips. Dough will be thick and sticky. Cover and chill the dough for at least 45 minutes in the refrigerator (and up to 4 days). If chilling for longer than a few hours, allow to sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before rolling and baking because the dough will be quite hard.
• Preheat oven to 350°F (177°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Set aside.
• Use a large cookie scoop to scoop the cookie dough, about 3 Tablespoons of dough per cookie, and place 4 inches apart on the baking sheets. Bake for 13-14 minutes or until lightly browned on the sides. The centers will look very soft.
• Remove from the oven and allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. While the cookies are still warm, I like to press a few more chocolate chips into the tops- this is only for looks!
• Cookies stay fresh covered at room temperature for up to 1 week.

CRISPY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES (MICHAEL SMITH)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375°F.
• Cream the butter, sugar and molasses together in a stand mixer. Beat until well combined and 'creamy'. If you don't have a stand mixer beat vigorously by hand in a large mixing bowl. Add the egg and vanilla to the butter mixture and continue beating until well combined.
• Meanwhile whisk the flour, oats, salt, baking powder and salt together in a separate bowl.
• Gradually add the flour mix to the wet mixture, beating just until combined. Stir in the chocolate chips by hand.
• Using a tablespoon scoop out a ball of the dough and drop onto a lightly greased cookie tray. Flatten slightly. Repeat, leaving lots of room in between the balls for the cookies to expand. Bake for 12-15 minutes. Cool for ten minutes then remove from the tray and try to eat only one!

CHEWY CHOCOLATE CHIP OATMEAL COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture until just blended. Mix in the quick oats, walnuts, and chocolate chips. Drop by heaping spoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets.
• Bake for 12 minutes in the preheated oven. Allow cookies to cool on baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

THICK AND CRUNCHY OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Don't preheat oven yet - dough needs to chill. Mix together flour, baking soda, and salt. Set aside. In a mixing bowl, cream butter and both sugars, then beat in egg and vanilla. Stir in oil and applesauce. Add flour mixture and stir until it is almost fully incorporated, then stir in the bran flakes, oatmeal, pecans and chocolate chips. Continue stirring until flour disappears.
• Chill dough for at least an hour - it will get very firm and almost crumbly.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. When ready to bake, scoop up with a spoon and form into golf ball size mounds. Space 3 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets and press the dough mounds down slightly to make round discs. Bake for 13-15 minutes. Baking them longer should make them a bit crunchier.

OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl. Mix the butter and both sugars in a large bowl with a wooden spoon until creamy. Beat in the egg until incorporated, then stir in the cream and vanilla.
• Add the flour mixture and gently stir until no traces of flour remain. Add the oats, chocolate chips and nuts (if using), and fold until evenly distributed. Loosely scoop a rounded ball of dough using a measuring tablespoon or small cookie scoop and drop onto a prepared sheet. Repeat with the remaining dough, spacing the balls 2 inches apart.
• Bake, 1 sheet at a time, until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes. Cool on the sheet on a wire rack for 1 minute, then transfer the cookies to the rack to cool completely. The cookies will keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months.
