Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Sea Salt Cookies

Sunday just feels like a cookie day. If you devote your Sundays to laziness the way I do, it's important to have baked goods for movie-watching, book-reading, and general lounging.

Tread carefully with this recipe - you will want to eat the bowl of cookie dough and then you won't have anything left for baking.

(Ingredients)
2 1/4 cups flour
1 cup oats
1 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
2 sticks of butter
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 tsp salt
3/4 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mix your flour, oats, baking powder, baking soda, and salt into one bowl. In a separate bowl, combine softened butter, brown sugar, white sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Mix well. Slowly combine your dry mixture with the butter & sugar mixture, and then add your chocolate chips.

At this point, I refrigerate my dough for about 15 minutes so I have an easier time shaping my cookies.

Place small balls of your dough onto a baking sheet (I use a nonstick one).


Sprinkle a little sea salt onto the top of each cookie. Bake at 350 degrees until browned.


Erm, they're ready now right? I like my cookies nearly raw, but Chase likes them a little crispy on the edges. I almost ate a cup of raw cookie dough while making these (I know, I know, uncooked eggs = bad). 


Now I'm rolling 5 oatmeal chocolate chip sea salt cookies deep! 

Actually this recipe makes about 23, but I don't think I could stack my cookies any higher than this.

Enjoy!
