Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

My sweet husband is going to his high school class reunion this weekend.   He graduated from a very small class (about 20).  Hope they enjoy his favorite cookie. 

Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies

Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
¾ cup sugar
¾ cup light brown sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
¼ teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats
2 cups milk chocolate chips 
 
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter, sugar and brown sugar until creamy. Add eggs and vanilla and beat until smooth. In a separate bowl, stir together baking soda, salt and flour. Add flour mixture to the wet ingredients and mix until combined. Fold in oatmeal and chocolate chips. Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper.  Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE parchment paper?  Love it!  Bake 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
