Oatmeal Cookie Delight
Feast your eyes on this delightful image of our soon-to-be cookie creations!
Ingredients:
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 3 cups rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional, but strongly recommended)
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This is the crucial first step—and no, you can’t skip it just because you’re feeling adventurous!
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Mix until the combination is smooth and creamy, resembling cloud fluff in fairy tales.
- Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. It’s all about that smooth operator vibe!
- Stir in the vanilla extract. Just imagine your kitchen smelling like a cozy bakery!
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon. Then, slowly add this dry mix to the wet ingredients. Let it swirl and twirl like a doughy dance party!
- Fold in the rolled oats. Embrace the chewy texture and don’t worry, they’re on your side!
- Drop tablespoonfuls of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, leaving some space between them so they can spread out and mingle in the oven.
- Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until they’re lightly golden. Try not to eat all of the raw dough; we know it’s hard, but remember: patience is a virtue!
- Once baked, let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. And then, the moment of truth—enjoy each soft and chewy cookie with a big glass of milk (or your drink of choice)!
There you have it – a foolproof recipe for oatmeal cookies that’ll have everyone singing your praises. No raisins allowed, just pure cookie joy! Now go forth and bake like you mean it!
