for Jay, of course.

They are his favourite! Jay likes them with less sugar and more oatmeal; we couldn’t agree more.

This recipe turned out really well. I will definitely be making these again. As usual, with us Carrol women it was a team effort.

Chewy Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

1 cup butter, soft

1 cup brown sugar

1/2 cup white sugar

2 eggs

2 tsp vanilla

1 1/4 cups flour

1/2 tsp baking soda

1 tsp salt

3 cups oatmeal (we used large flake and quick oats)

1 cup chocolate chips (we used milk and semi sweet)

Preheat oven to 325. Cream butter and surgars in a bowl. Add eggs and vanilla, mix well. Add all other ingredients and mix until combined.

Drop by teaspoon full onto a silicon or parchment lined baking sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes.
