Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract until glossy.
  4. Whisk flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon in a separate bowl until combined.
  5. Gradually mix the flour mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
  6. Fold in the rolled oats and chocolate chips.
  7. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  8. Scoop rounded tablespoons of dough onto baking sheets, spacing 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are golden and centers are slightly soft.
  10. Cool on the sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients for best results. Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes to prevent spreading. Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week with a slice of bread to keep soft.
