Categories     dessert

Time 45m

Yield 28 to 32 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 pound (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 cup light brown sugar, lightly packed
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
2 extra-large eggs, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 cups old-fashioned oats, such as Quaker
3/4 pound bittersweet chocolate, such as Lindt, chopped in chunks
3/4 cup dried cranberries
Fleur de sel

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 3 sheet pans with parchment paper.
  • In an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar on medium-high speed for 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Scrape down the bowl with a rubber spatula. On low speed, add the vanilla, then the eggs, one at a time. Scrape down the bowl again.
  • Meanwhile, sift the flour, baking soda, and salt into a medium bowl. Mix in the oats. With the mixer on low, slowly add the flour mixture to the butter-sugar mixture. Don't overbeat it! With a rubber spatula, stir in the chocolate and cranberries until the dough is well mixed. With a 1 3/4-inch ice cream scoop (or two spoons), scoop round balls of dough onto the prepared sheet pans. Sprinkle lightly with fleur de sel. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until nicely browned. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This is my own adapted version that I made from an Epicurious recipe. They are delicious but I need to say that they taste best the next day. When fresh from the oven the ginger hasn't really matured and mingled to it's best yet.

CHEWY OATMEAL COOKIES



Chewy Oatmeal Cookies image

These cookies will remedy whatever kind of bad day you have had. They're the cookies you eat when you forgot a homework assignment, when your coworkers call in sick on a snow day, or when you're exhausted after moving all your stuff to a new apartment. They're craveable as well as comforting. They also make a great blank canvas: You can add up to 1 1/2 cups of inclusions -- some of my favorites are chocolate chunks, dried fruit, coarsely chopped nuts, and/or candied ginger.

Time 50m

Yield Makes 18 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 11

227 grams (8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
213 grams (1 cup) packed brown sugar
66 grams (1/3 cup) granulated sugar
113 grams (2 large) eggs
5 grams (1 teaspoon) vanilla extract
210 grams (1 3/4 cups) all-purpose flour
6 grams (1 teaspoon) baking soda
2 grams (1/2 teaspoon) baking powder
4 grams (1 teaspoon) fine sea salt
2 grams (1 teaspoon) ground cinnamon
199 grams (2 cups) old-fashioned oats

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C), with racks in the upper and lower thirds. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment (or in a large bowl, using a hand mixer), cream the butter and sugars on medium-low speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed until each one is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla and mix to combine. Scrape the bowl well.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Add to the butter mixture and mix on low speed just until incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the oats and mix on low speed to combine, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Scrape the bowl well.
  • Use a No. 16 (1/4-cup) scoop to portion the cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets --stagger the cookies, leaving 1 1/2 inches between them to allow for spreading.
  • Bake the cookies, rotating the sheets from front to back and top to bottom at the halfway mark, until evenly golden brown, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer the cookies to wire racks to cool.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your cookies.
  • Be sure to chill the dough before baking. This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixed dough will make tough cookies.
  • Bake the cookies until they are just set. Overbaked cookies will be dry and crumbly.
  • Let the cookies cool completely before enjoying them. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cookies to firm up.

Conclusion:

These oatmeal cookies with chocolate chunks and candied ginger are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual snack to a special dessert. With their chewy texture, sweet flavor, and hint of ginger, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
