    Have you ever had a Chic Fil A cookie before? They’re these absolutely amazing chocolate chip cookies with just the right amount of oatmeal. They’re always warm and go amazing with their fresh squeezed lemonade.

    It has taken me several times to get this recipe down. The first time I tried to make these they were not good at all, my husband didn’t even humor me, but that’s life when you blog about recipes, sometimes you just have some epic fails. Several tries later, I got them down pretty close to the originals. If you try this recipe out, please let me know how you like it!

    What ingredients are needed to make these cookies?

    For these cookies, you will need:

    • All purpose flour: The base of the cookie dough.
    • Sugar and brown sugar: To sweeten the cookies.
    • Baking soda: To help the cookies rise.
    • Salt: You’ll need just half of a teaspoon of salt.
    • Oats: Use old fashioned or quick oats for this recipe.
    • Eggs: You’ll need two large eggs for this recipe.
    • Vanilla extract: If possible, I recommend that you use pure vanilla extract.
    • Butter: I recommend using unsalted butter for baking. The amount of salt varies brand to brand when you use salted butter and I think it is much easier to control the amount of salt going into your recipe this way. Salted butter also usually contains more water than unsalted butter.
    • Chocolate chunks: I probably go to the grocery store more than a normal person as a food blogger and I hardly ever see chocolate chunks at my local stores. If you can’t find chocolate chunks, chocolate chips will work just fine in this recipe.

    How to make these cookies

    Soften your butter to room temperature.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine your dry ingredients (flour, sugar, brown sugar, salt, baking soda, and oats). Stir well with a large spoon.

    Next, add in your wet ingredients (softened butter, eggs, and vanilla extract). Mix well with a hand or stand mixer until everything is well combined. The dough may seem crumbly but this is normal.

    Stir in the chocolate chunks (or chocolate chips) with a large spoon.

    Cover and let chill for at least one hour in your refrigerator.

    Add very large dough balls (about ¼ cup) to a greased or parchment paper (not wax paper) lined baking sheet. Leave room for the cookies to spread some.

    Bake for 13 to 17 minutes at 350 degrees. Let them rest on the baking sheet for at least 10 minutes before transferring.

    Tips

    • Be sure to chill your cookie dough or the cookies may come out too flat.
    • You can either grease a cookie sheet or use parchment paper (NOT wax paper).
    • If you can’t find chocolate chunks, chocolate chips will work just fine in this recipe.
    • Make sure your oven is fully preheated before baking the cookies.

    How to store these cookies

    Store any leftover cookies in an airtight container. They will be good for up to four days after baking.
