Chewy Oatmeal choc-o-chip cookies
Ingredients
2 stick salted butter melted
1 cup oatmeal
2 ¼ cup flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup white sugar
1 table spoon molasses
1 whole egg
1 egg yolk
1 oz milk
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions

- Cream the butter and sugar together in a mixer about 5-8 minutes
- In another dish whisk eggs, milk, molasses and vanilla
- Add the liquid mixture to the butter and sugar, blend till incorporated
- Then add the flour/oatmeal mixture, mix until incorporated then stop (few seconds)
- Scrape down the bowl, add in the chocolate chips, mix until incorporated then stop (few seconds)
- Cover and place in the fridge for one hour
- After an hour scoop cookies unto a prepared sheet pan and bake for 10 minutes at 400 degrees
- After 10 minutes remove from oven and allow to rest on the hot sheet pan for 5 minutes
- After the 5 minutes transfer them to a cooling rack to completely cool
Greedy Tips:
- you must stick to the baking times EXACTLY!
- They say the darker the brown sugar the chewier the cookie
- As I do sometimes, If a recipe is heavy on the sugar I use salted butter instead of adding salt.
- After the 10 minutes your cookies will be underdone, but resting on the hot sheet pan for 5 minutes will allow the centers to cook to perfection....and i do mean perfection!
