Best Oatmeal Cookies!

Made these dark chocolate salted oatmeal cookies and they're delicious!

You'll need:

2 c old fashioned oats
1 cup flour
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp sea salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temp
4 T vegetable shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
1 large egg
1 tsp vanilla
6 oz bittersweet chocolate chopped coarsely

Heat oven to 375.  Line two baking sheets with parchment.  Combine oats, flour, soda, cinnamon, 1 tsp seal salt in medium bowl and set aside.

Beat the butter, shortening, both sugars, on med-high til fluffy 2-3 minutes, beat in egg and vanilla.  Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture, til just combined.  Mix in the chocolate.

Drop heaping tablespoons of dough into sheets, 2 in apart.  Sprinkle with remaining tsp of sea salt.

Bake, rotating pans halfway through, til cookies are lightly browned 10-12 minutes.  Cool a bit on sheets, then transfer to cooking racks.

Makes about 2 dozen.

Enjoy!
