How to make easy oatmeal chocolate chip cookies
First, start by preheating the oven to 375F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, oats. and salt and set aside.
In a stand mixer bowl, cream the butter and both sugar for 2 minutes. Add in the vanilla, the egg yolk and the heavy cream and mix until incorporated, another 1 minute.
Add in the dry mixture to the wet mixture and mix just until the flour disappears. Fold in the chocolate chunks or chips.
Using a small cookie scooper, scoop out equally sized chocolate cookie dough balls and place them on the baking sheet making sure to leave at least 2 inches between each cookies. They will spread while baking. Bake for 8-9 minutes, then pull them out of the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring them to a cooling wrack. (this step is very important to keep the cookies soft and chewy so don’t skip it!)

Tips to make the best oatmeal chocolate chunk cookies
When making these oatmeal chocolate chip cookies a few tips that will help you make the best batch would be:
- Don’t over mix! To keep the cookies soft and chewy avoid over mixing the dry mixture into the wet mixture. Once the flour disappears, stop mixing and fold in your chocolate chips 🙂
- Bake the cookies as soon as the dough is mixed! The flour and oats will continue absorbing the moisture from these cookies as they sit. So whenever the cookie dough is ready bake it for the best moist chocolate chip oat cookies! If you decide to wait, the cookies won’t spread as much but will be just as tasty 🙂
- Don’t over bake! We want to keep out oatmeal cookies as chewy as possible. The cookies might seem a little raw still when you pull them out of the oven but don’t worry they will continue cooking as they cool down.
- Don’t let the cookies stay on the hot baking sheet for too long! Once you pull the cookies out of the oven, let them cool on the hot baking sheet for 1-2 minutes and immediately move them to a cooling rack. This will keep them from over baking and becoming hard. Don’t skip this tip!!!
You see the pattern here, over doing anything is a no go for these cookies!
