Total Time: 1 hr 25 mins
Servings: 48
Yield: 4 dozen cookies

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups all-purpose flour
  2. ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  3. 1 teaspoon baking soda
  4. ½ teaspoon baking powder
  5. ½ teaspoon salt
  6. 1 cup butter, softened
  7. 1 cup white sugar
  8. 1 cup packed light brown sugar
  9. 2 large eggs
  10. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  11. 2 cups quick cooking oats
  12. 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
  2. Beat butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Beat the first egg into the butter until completely blended, then beat in vanilla extract with the last egg. Mix in flour mixture until just incorporated. Fold in oats and chocolate chips, mixing just enough to evenly combine.
  3. Drop tablespoonfuls of the dough 2 inches apart onto ungreased baking sheets.
  4. Bake in preheated oven until cookies are set, 11 to 12 minutes. Cool in baking sheets for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

I substituted Ghirardelli Sweet Ground Chocolate and Cocoa Powder for the regular cocoa powder and accidentally forgot to decrease the sugar a little, so these came out a bit sweeter than I would have liked, but they were still delicious. I also added a cup of chopped pecans and I think next time I will decrease the chocolate chips a little so the dough isn’t quite so overwhelmed by the add-ins. But these cookies were still delicious and I will definitely be making them again!

I wanted a cookie recipe with cocoa, chocolate chips and oatmeal and this recipe was perfect. I made a half batch and put in 3/4 cup of oats and 3/4 cup of chocolate chips — loved the final result. Yummo!
Justin Robinson
Great recipe! Thank you! I did add 1/2 cranberries and 1/2 chocolate chips. Like the sweet and tart. Best cookies I have ever made!
Andrew Ellis
Taste is good. My metal kitchen aid beater bar broke. Batter is way too thick. Add less oats. I add almond extract too.
Brandon Rice
I used peanut butter chips instead of chocolate chips and only 1 cup of oatmeal because it was already really thick dough so I thought another cup would be too much. I absolutely loved this cookie batter though!!! They turned out perfect. Soft and chewy.
Julie King
Delicious, but used old fashioned oats (chopped) instead of instant oats. Added 1/2 c milk and used 3 eggs instead of 2. Batter was extremely stiff. Used a cookie scoop to drop onto cookie sheets for uniformity.
Natalie Gutierrez
Tasted great, even with only white sugar and coconut oil for butter.
Catherine Miller
I added half a teaspoon of maple extract and these were amazing! Everyone loved them but dogs beware, the are VERY chocolaty!
Katherine Wu
Not bad, honestly I think I like the dough more than I like the cookies actually baked, but the chewy to crisp ratio is pretty nice
Brian Gordon
Oh my goodness, these are most excellent cookies. Easy to make and delicious.
Jeffery Lane
Taste great! Easy to make.
Lance Mcdaniel
Best cookie ever!
Karen Nichols
substituted butter for imperial margerine (I do this for most cookie recipies. Love Imperial for baking) Lowered oatmeal to 1 1/2 cup. YUMMY!!
Raymond Hernandez
Just another half of cup to the two…l’m a chocolate lover.
Robert Cunningham
made it exactly as the recipe says. It was not crumbly I did not flatten the balls. They came out perfect
Natalie Conrad
OMG!! Soooo yummy!!! A few changes: I added cup and a half of minichocochips and I think that next time I’ll add just one cup. Cooking time will depend of thickness of the cookie (probably obvious for an experienced baker but I’m a newbie!) I tried one batch making balls of 1” thickness and I baked them for 14 min. Next batch I flattened them to half an inch and baked them for 11 min. Personally I liked the thicker one better because they are crunchy outside and chewey inside.

Absolutely delicious!!
Mackenzie Mooney
My boyfriend described these as “brownie tasting with peanut butter chips” and he didn’t even know there was oatmeal in them, but he did ask for a glass of milk
Jaime Davis
These cookies are awesome. They are moist, chewy and rich chocolatey goodness. I used only half of the chocolate chips because that is what I had on hand. Just follow the recipe as it is written. Yum!!
Angelica Morris
I added 3 tablespoons of peanut butter. The batter was very dry, but the cookies were moist and wonderful. I also cut the sugar in half.
David Hanson
I made the recipe, but the only thing I did different was chilled the dough over night. GREAT COOKIES!
