Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter 227 g/2 sticks, at cool room temp
  • 3/4 cup lightly packed brown sugar 165 g
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar 150 g
  • 2 eggs room temp
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cup all purpose flour 204 g
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 2 cups rolled oats 170 g
  • 12 oz semisweet chocolate chips 2 cups

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine flour, baking soda and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, or a stand mixer if you prefer, cream together butter and sugars until fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Add eggs and vanilla and beat well.
  • Gradually add in dry ingredients, beat until combined.
  • Stir in oats until well combined.
  • Fold in chocolate chips.
  • Spread in a lightly greased 9x13 pan
  • Bake for 25-28 minutes, until golden brown.
  • Don't cut right away, unless you like eating them with a spoon! Let cool until room temp (or slightly warmer is fine), cut into bars, and enjoy.

Notes

My favorite way to make these is to replace the fine sea salt with kosher salt-it gives them a lightly salty/sweet taste, which is always a huge hit!
