Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups rolled oats
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 tbsp milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips (or good-quality milk chocolate, chopped)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, mix oats, flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- Add softened butter, vanilla, and milk to the dry ingredients. Mix with your hands or a pastry cutter until a crumbly dough forms.
- Form the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill for 15 minutes.
- Roll the dough out on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into rounds with a cookie cutter.
- Place the rounds on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 10–12 minutes, until golden at the edges.
- Let cookies cool completely on a wire rack.
- Melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or in the microwave in short bursts.
- Spread a generous layer of melted chocolate over the flat bottom of each cookie. Let set at room temperature or refrigerate for faster setting.
- Once the chocolate is firm, store cookies in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use high-quality chocolate for best results.
- Adjust baking time slightly depending on cookie thickness.
- Cookies can be frozen before or after adding chocolate.
