Ingredients
  

Wet Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsalted butter (cubed) Room temperature for optimal creaming.
  • 1 cup light or dark brown sugar Adds caramel flavor.
  • 1 cup white granulated sugar Balances sweetness.
  • 2 large eggs Binds the ingredients.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla Enhances flavor.
Dry Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 cups rolled oats (blended fine) Add chewiness.
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour Maintains structure.
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt Balances flavors.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder Promotes soft texture.
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda Contributes to cookie lift.
Mix-Ins
  • 12 ounces chocolate chips Semi-sweet and bittersweet for richness.
  • 1 4 oz. milk chocolate bar (grated; optional) Extra sweetness.
  • 1 to 1 1/2 cups chopped nuts (walnuts or pecans; chopped, optional) Adds crunch.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream the butter and both sugars in a mixer until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then add the vanilla.
  4. Mix oats, flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a separate bowl.
  5. Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet ingredients while mixing on low until just combined.
  6. Fold in chocolate chips, grated chocolate (if using), and nuts until evenly distributed.
  7. Roll dough into 1.5-inch balls and place them 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheet.
Baking
  1. Bake for 12 to 14 minutes until golden around the edges and slightly soft in the center.
  2. Let cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For best results, ensure butter is at room temperature and consider chilling the dough for 30 minutes before baking to enhance flavor.
