    These are our favorite Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies. Slightly crispy on the outside, chewy, and full of chocolate chips on the inside. Yum!

    A few cookies on parchment paper in front of a rack of cooling cookies.

    We love oatmeal in cookies. A couple more recipes we love are Butterscotch Oatmeal Cookies and Mom's Uncooked Cookies.

    Recipe Ingredients

    Labeled ingredients shown for oatmeal chip cookies.

    Ingredient notes

    • Butter - I use half butter and half canola oil. The reason I do this is that my mom did and I love the way the cookies come out. If you and your family prefer all-butter cookies, you can omit the canola oil and add 2 sticks of butter to this recipe.
    • Old-Fashioned Oats - In my opinion, using Old-Fashioned Oats is always the better option in cookies. However, if quick one-minute oats are all that are available, they will work also. With the quick oats, the cookies will not be as chewy.

    Step-by-step directions

    Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

    butter, canola oil, and sugar in a blue mixing bowl.

    1 - Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, cream together the softened butter, canola oil, and sugars. Beat until light and creamy.

    Eggs and vanilla added to creamed butter and sugar in a mixing bowl.

    2 - Add the eggs and vanilla, and mix.

    Flour added to wet ingredients for cookies in a blue bowl.

    3 - Next, add the flour, salt, and baking soda. Mix until thoroughly combined. Using a spatula or wooden spoon might work better at this point.

    Chocolate chips and oats added to cookie batter in a mixing bowl.

    4 - Add the chocolate chips and old-fashioned oats. Mix until combined.

    5 - Using a cookie scoop or teaspoons, place the cookie dough on the baking sheet. Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 - 12 minutes.

    When the cookies are done, let them cool for about a minute on the baking sheet, then move them to a cooling rack or parchment paper to cool. Store the cookies in a covered container or Zip-loc bag.

    Recipe Faq's

    Can I make the cookie dough ahead of time?

    Sure. Mix together all the cookie dough ingredients and store, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours ahead of use.

    My cookie sheet is old, how do I make clean-up easier?

    Use a piece of parchment paper on the cookie sheet, or spray the pan with non-stick cooking spray. Or, use a piece of foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

    Can I freeze the dough for future use?

    I have not tried this, but I know others have. Use the cookie scoop and place the dough on a baking sheet. Freeze. When frozen, move the dough to a container or Zip-loc bag and store it in the freezer. When ready to bake, add a few extra minutes to the cooking time.

    Mom tip

    For easy cleanup, once the cookies are baked, place all the dirty beaters and utensils in the mixing bowl. Place the bowl in the sink and fill it with warm soapy water. After a couple of minutes, those dishes that do not go in the dishwasher will clean up easily.
