Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Cream together 1 cup of softened butter and 1 cup of brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Gradually add in 2 cups of flour while mixing on low speed until just combined, forming a soft, cohesive ball.
  3. Fold in your choice of mix-ins: stir in 1 cup of chocolate chips, 1 cup of oats, and 1 cup of chopped nuts or other fun add-ins.
  4. Using a cookie scoop, drop rounded balls onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them two inches apart.
  5. Bake for 10-12 minutes, removing when the edges are lightly golden while centers remain soft.
  6. Let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Use room temperature butter for a creamy dough. Avoid overmixing to prevent tough cookies. Keep an eye on bake time for a chewy center. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.
