Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Brown the Butter (5 minutes): In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Continue cooking, swirling the pan frequently, until the butter turns a nutty brown color and emits a toasted aroma. Transfer to a heatproof bowl to cool completely. This step is crucial for developing the cookies' signature flavor.

02

Step
5 mins

Preheat Oven (5 minutes): Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.

03

Step
5 mins

Cream Sugars and Browned Butter (5 minutes): In a large mixing bowl, beat together the cooled browned butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and creamy. This step ensures a tender cookie texture.

04

Step
3 mins

Incorporate Eggs and Vanilla (3 minutes): Beat in one egg until fully incorporated, then add the second egg and vanilla extract. Mix until the batter is smooth and uniform in color.

05

Step
5 mins

Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients (5 minutes): In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough cookies.

06

Step
2 mins

Add Chocolate Chips (2 minutes): Gently fold in the chocolate chips until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

07

Step
12 mins

Shape and Bake (12 minutes): Drop rounded tablespoons of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving some space between each cookie.

08

Step
12 mins

Bake until Golden Brown (12 minutes): Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set. The cookies will continue to firm up as they cool.

09

Step
10 mins

Cool and Enjoy (10 minutes): Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely. This helps them retain their shape and prevents them from breaking.

For an even more intense flavor, try using dark chocolate chips or chunks instead of semi-sweet.
If you don't have time to cool the browned butter completely, you can speed up the process by placing the bowl in the refrigerator for a short period.
Store these cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days for optimal freshness.
