Add the remaining dry ingredients in and again mix until just mostly combined {you don't want to over mix}. 6 Add in the chocolate chips and stir in with a spoon or rubber spatula. 7 Using a small cookie scoop, scoop out the dough about an inch apart onto a parchment lined baking sheet. 8 Bake for apron 12-14 minutes. Cool slightly on the pan then cool completely on a cooling rack. 9 Repeat until all the dough is baked off. 10 Yields approx 5-6 dozen {don't worry you'll easily find friends to share with, if you decide to share at all wink wink}

About

I have to pat myself on the back here for a second, I have certainly improved in my cookie recipe making recently. I not only gave these Chocolate Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies to Jacks teachers but I also brought them up to my father in laws last weekend… HUGE HIT!!! I love the double dose of chocolate, the cookie itself and the chips throughout. Now, that oatmeal… I really love oatmeal in a cookie, I think it adds a nice chew and heartiness to the cookie!!
