Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

We finally found a good recipe for oatmeal chocolate chip cookies (Thanks Mom):

1 C. Brown Sugar
1 C. Sugar
1 C. Butter
(make sure you just soften it, not melt it. It’s best to soften it at room temperature but if you have to use the microwave BE CAREFUL. If you melt it, the cookies will come out as flat as a possum at a monster truck rally.)
4 Eggs
2 tsp. Vanilla

Mix those things together then add:

2 1/4 C. Flour
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1/2 tsp. Salt
2 1/2 C. Oats
As many dang chocolate chips as you want (1-2 cups)

Bake 8 minutes at 350 degrees. What I do is set the timer for 7 minutes then check it often until they’re done because some ovens are just plain crazy and I don’t want burnt cookies.

If you’re awesome, you’re cookies will turn out like these ones (that someone on the internet made):
