Ingredients

1 cup cooked steel cut oats
2 ½ cups flour
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup butter softened
½ cup sugar
½ cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 eggs
1 cup chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
Mix flour, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl with a spoon.
2 ½ cups flour, ½ teaspoon baking powder, ¼ teaspoon salt
In a large bowl, using a hand mixer, cream butter, sugars and vanilla together until well combined; add eggs and beat until combined. Add cooked oats and mix until combined.
½ cup butter, ½ cup sugar, ½ cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon vanilla, 2 eggs, 1 cup cooked steel cut oats
Add flour mixture and stir, with a large spoon, until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
1 cup chocolate chips
Drop by rounded tablespoons, or use a cookie scoop, onto prepared baking sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes, or until they look set and no indentation remains when touched.
Let cool on cookie sheet for about 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack to cool the rest of the way.

Notes

A stand mixer with the paddle attachment can be used instead of a hand mixer. You can also mix the dough by hand.

I use a 1-tablespoon cookie scoop so the cookies are evenly sized.

Reserve about ¼ cup of the chocolate chips to press into the tops of the cookies before baking. This makes the chocolate chips more visible on the finished cookies.

I use a 17 ½" x 13" aluminum baking sheet, which holds 15 cookies.
