How to make Loaded Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 350 degrees F. Using parchment paper, line 2 cookie sheets, and set aside.

Step 2: Cream the softened butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, and vanilla in a bowl of a stand mixer. Then, add the eggs one at a time, beating every after each addition.

Step 3: Sift the all-purpose flour, baking powder, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt in another bowl. To the creamed mixture, slowly add the dry ingredients, beating until just blended. As needed, scrape the sides of the bowl.

Step 4: Fold in the oatmeal, chocolate chips, toffee bits, and pecans using a large spatula. Mix well until completely mixed and the batter is stiff.

Step 5: Use 4 ounces of ice cream scoop for jumbo cookies. Scoop the dough and place it on the prepared cookie sheets, leaving about 2 to 3 inches of space between them. Then, flatten each center using floured fingers.

Step 6: Place in the preheated oven and bake for about 16 to 18 minutes or until the cookies are golden and the edges are crisp. Remove from the oven when done and allow the cookies to cool on the pan for about 15 minutes before inverting to a cooling rack to cool fully.

Notes:

This recipe yields 24 jumbo cookies. If you prefer medium cookies, use 2 ounces of ice cream scoop.

On a cookie sheet, lay the pecans in a single layer. Place in the oven and roast at 350 degrees F for about 6 to 8 minutes.

Before adding to the cookie dough, make sure to cool the roasted pecans completely.
