Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugars until pale in color and fluffy in texture. Add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking soda, salt.
Add the flour mixture to the butter mixture and beat until combined. Add the oats and use a wooden spoon to stir until combined. Add the chocolate chips and stir until combined.
Drop the cookie batter onto a cookie sheet using an ice cream scoop or spoon, in about 1-inch rounds. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Notes
For those who prefer to use the stand mixer to make the cookie dough: Use the paddle attachment to cream the butter and sugar, then add the eggs and vanilla extract and beat until combined. Then add the baking soda, salt, flour – mix that until thoroughly combined. Then add the oats, then add the chocolate chips.
