Salted Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies


Ingredients
1 Cup (2 sticks) Unsalted Butter, softened
1 Cup Packed light brown sugar
1/2 Cup White sugar
2 large Eggs
2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
1 ¼ Cup All Purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
1 teaspoon (1/2 for dough, and 1/2 to sprinkle on top) Morton® All-Purpose Natural Sea Salt
3 Cups Instant Oats
1 Cup Semi sweet chocolate chips

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Cream butter, brown sugar and white sugar in mixer on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Beat in one egg at a time until combined. Add vanilla.
3. In a separate mixing bowl, whisk flour, baking soda and ½ tsp of salt and then add to butter and egg mixture and mix until combined.
4. Fold in oats and chocolate chips into entire mix with a wooden spoon until combined.
5. Drop dough by rounded tablespoons onto parchment-lined baking sheet two inches apart. Use the last ½ tsp of salt to sprinkle a pinch of salt onto the top of each cookie. Bake for about 12 -15 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.

Amazing! I don't think I will be able to eat another kind of Oatmeal Cookie, it must have Morton Salt moving forward. This Book Club supports Morton Salt. ;)
