Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Step #1- Grind oats in a blender or food processor. Add flour, baking soda, and salt.
Step #2- In a separate bowl, beat butter until fluffy. To the butter, add oil, granulated sugar, brown sugar, egg, and vanilla; beat until creamy.
Add the dry ingredients, beating on low speed until just combined. Add chocolate chips.
Our kids love when I add extra chocolate chips to half of the batch… I make one tray and then add chocolate chips before baking another tray.
Step #3- Drop the dough by heaping teaspoonfuls, 1 inch apart, onto the greased baking sheets.
Step #4- Bake cookies until firm around the edges and golden on top, about 12-14 minutes
