1 tsp vanilla extract

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

Instructions

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually mix into the wet ingredients.
Fold in oats and chocolate chips until well distributed.
(Optional) Chill the dough for 30 minutes to 1 hour for thicker cookies.
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
Scoop dough by tablespoons onto the sheet, 2 inches apart.
Bake 10–12 minutes until edges are golden. Centers should look slightly soft.
Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.
