OATMEAL CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES



Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies image

These taste distinctly homemade: much smaller than giant, thick bakery-style disks and more delicate, with just enough buttery dough to bind the chocolate and oats. Mixing by hand turns out cookies that are crisp at the edges and tender in the centers. These can be mixed and baked in under an hour, but the dough balls also can be packed in an airtight container and refrigerated for up to 3 days, or frozen for up to a month. You can bake them from ice-cold, though they'll need a few more minutes to turn golden brown.

3/4 cup/100 grams all-purpose flour

8 tablespoons/114 grams unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup/94 grams packed brown sugar
1/4 cup/59 grams granulated sugar
