Brown Sugar Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients

2 cups dark brown sugar, packed
1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, softened
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 eggs
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3 cups old-fashioned oats

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.

In the bowl of a stand mixer (or using a hand mixer), beat the butter and brown sugar together until fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract. Add in the eggs one at a time, scraping the bowl after each one.

Mix together the salt, flour, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Add it into the creamed mixture in 2-3 batches, mixing until just combined. Then, mix in the oats until just combined.

Using a cookie scoop or a spoon, place portions of dough onto baking sheets, spacing them a couple of inches apart.

Bake for 12-13 minutes, until dark and chewy. Let the cookies slightly cool before serving.
