Peanut Butter-Oatmeal Chipsters
- 1 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 13 cups smooth peanut butter or 1 13 cups chunky peanut butter
- 1 13 cups packed light brown sugar
- 34 teaspoon baking soda
- 18 teaspoon salt
- 2 large eggs, at room temperature
- 2 cups quick-cooking oats (not instant)
- 2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
- 1 12-2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips or 1 12-2 cups milk chocolate chips
- Position a rack in the middle of oven; preheat to 350.
- Line several large baking sheets with baking parchment.
- In a large bowl, vigorously stir the melted butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, baking soda, and salt until evenly incorporated and free of lumps; let cool until warm to touch.
- Vigorously stir in the eggs, then the oats; let stand for 5 minutes so the oats can hydrate.
- Thoroughly stir in the flour and morsels .
- If the dough is very soft, refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes, until firmed up slightly.
- Using a 2-inch spring-loaded scoop or heaping soupspoon, drop the dough into 2 inch mounds, spacing about 2 1/2 inches apart.
- Using a lightly greased table fork, press down on the cookies to form a crisscross pattern in the tops.
- Bake one sheet at a time for 11-14 minutes or until the cookies are lightly tinged with brown all over and barely firm when pressed in the center top.
- Transfer the baking sheets to wire racks; let stand until the cookies firm up, about 3 minutes.
- Using a wide spatula, transfer the cookies to the wire racks; let cool completely.
- Cool the baking sheets between batches to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
