All Things Sweet Recipe

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Not too many years ago pastry chef and Food Network Canada star Anna Olson owned a bakery nearby and I would love to pop in and pick up some goodies now and again.  One of my favorite things were her Oatmeal Raisin cookies that I would bring home and dunk in a cold glass of milk or a warm cup of tea.  Yes.  I am a dunker!  These cookies were crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside.  Just a hint of spice made them extra delicious.

I have her cookbook and have made the cookies several times myself, but recently when I had a Sunday to myself I decided I would substitute milk chocolate chips for the raisins.  I was making chocolate chip cookies anyway, so I thought why not make an oatmeal chocolate chip cookie too.

When everyone arrived home later in the day the were more than happy to see dozens of cookies cooling in the kitchen!

I however had enjoyed a couple right from the oven.  Warm, chewy and melted chocolate.  I made my favorite cup of Tazo Orange Blossom tea, put my feet up and thoroughly enjoyed my cookies in peace and quiet!

This recipe makes about 3 to 4 dozen cookies, depending on big you like them.  I used a heaping cookie scoop of dough per cookie, and the cookies were just the right size.  

Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

A long time ago I invested in a few good quality half sheet baking pans at a local restaurant supply store, and I so glad I did.  The are big enough to fit at least 15 larger cookies and even more smaller ones.  These ones are similar and are commercial grade made of a heavier grade aluminum than your typical department store baking sheets, and will last a good long time.  I always line my baking sheets with parchment paper, which makes for easy clean-up!

You can find the original Oatmeal Raisin Cookie recipe in Anna Olson’s cookbook Back to Baking, and my adaption of the recipe for Oatmeal Chocolate Chips down below!

Ingredients
  1. 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
  2. 1 cup packed brown sugar
  3. 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  4. 1 egg
  5. 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  6. 1 1/4 cup all purpose flour
  7. 2 tablespoon cornstarch
  8. 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  9. 1/2 teaspoon salt
  10. 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  11. 1 cup rolled oats (not quick or instant)
  12. 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In the bowl of electric mixer cream the butter, brown sugar and white sugar until light and fluffy (about 2 minutes). Beat in the egg and the vanilla.
  3. In a separate bowl sift together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt and cinnamon.
  4. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and mix on low just until combined.
  5. Stir in chocolate chips.
  6. Drop dough by heaping tablespoons full onto prepared baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each. Do not press down. Bake, one sheet at a time, for 10 to 12 minutes, just until the edges begin to turn golden.
  7. Do not over bake. Cookies will appear soft when first out of the oven.
  8. Cool on baking sheet about 3 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
  1. Store in an airtight container for about 3 days.

    I *love* chocolate chip oatmeal cookies so much. I started a batch this morning but have discovered that I am out of oatmeal – how on earth am I out of oatmeal??? So it’s all on hold until I get more oats. Everything else is measured and waiting to go, so at least it should go quickly once I get back from the store. 🙂

    I didn’t see adding the oats in the description, I imagine you add them in at the same time as the chocolate chips ????
