These cookies are great just from the oven, but even more amazing you can freeze them after baking and when you thaw them out they will be just as chewy and good as they were when they were fresh. Recipe is easily halved or doubled. Yummy!

Tips:

  • Use a large mixing bowl to ensure there's enough space for all the ingredients.
  • Make sure the butter and eggs are at room temperature before starting. This will help them mix together more easily.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until they are light and fluffy. This will help to incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a lighter and more tender cookie.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help to prevent the batter from curdling.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Overmixing will result in a tough cookie.
  • Stir in the chocolate chips, oats, and nuts. Be sure to reserve some of the chocolate chips for topping the cookies before baking.
  • Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Be sure to space the cookies at least 2 inches apart, as they will spread while baking.
  • Bake the cookies at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
  • Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Conclusion:
