The perfect oatmeal chocolate chip cookie is chewy, gooey, loaded with chocolate chips, and sprinkled with sea salt.

Ingredients
 

  • 8 ounces unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup white sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 1/2 cups whole rolled oats
  • 1 1/2 cups mixed chocolate chips, (I used equal parts semisweet chips, miniature chips, and dark chocolate chunks)
  • 1/4 cup cacao nibs, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350° F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Heat butter in a saucepan just until melted. Allow to cool for a couple of minutes.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together sugars and melted butter. Add eggs and vanilla, whisking thoroughly until mixture is well combined and shiny-smooth.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon, salt, and oats. Add to butter mixture and fold in gently with a spatula until almost combined. Fold in chocolate chips and cacao nibs.
  • Use a large 3 tablespoon spring-loaded scoop to scoop cookie dough onto prepared sheet pans, placing at least 2 inches apart.
  • Bake until cookies are brown and crispy around the edges but still very lightly gooey in the center, about 11-13 minutes.
