Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

I love all kinds of oatmeal cookies, but I know that for most people, chocolate wins over raisins!

I’m a little picky about oatmeal cookies.

They have to be crispy on the edges and chewy through the middle. Never too thick or fluffy!

These cookies are thick enough that they won’t break, but thin enough that they’re not cakey.

And since we can control the texture further by flattening our cookie dough balls (for thinner, chewier cookies) or leaving them tall, they really are the perfect cookie for everyone.

These Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies have a great base that you can use with lots of different add ins, and I’ve included a list below so you can mix and match.

How to Make Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Start with room temperature butter — you don’t want it too cold or too warm! Cream the butter and sugar together until fluffy and incorporated.
Add the egg and vanilla and mix until combined.
Add all of the dry ingredients, except the chocolate chips, and mix it up.
Add in your chips and stir well.
Bake — I don’t chill my dough before baking, since I like thinner, chewy cookies with crispy edges, but you could! I like to press my cookies down slightly so they don’t turn out too thick.
Let sit for 5-10 minutes before removing from the baking sheet. This way, they won’t fall apart and will continue to set up!

Variations On These Oatmeal Cookies:

Swap the chocolate chips for raisins, or include both!
Swap the chocolate chips for butterscotch, peanut butter, white chocolate, or any other kind of chip your heart desires.
Add in white chocolate chips and dried cranberries
Add in 1/4 cup of toasted coconut
Add in 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon for some warmth

Ingredients

3/4 cup unsalted butter room temperature
1 cup brown sugar packed
1 egg
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups large rolled oats
1 1/4 cups all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cups chocolate chips

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl with an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Add egg and vanilla and beat until smooth.
Add oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt and stir with an electric mixer or by hand until combined. Stir in chocolate chips.
Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls (if you’re using a cookie scoop, you’ll want to use a 2 or 3 TBSP scoop) onto parchment paper 2-3 inches apart (I do 9 per pan). If you like thinner, chewier cookies, press down slightly.
Bake at 350 degrees F for 9-10 minutes, until the edges are beginning to brown and the centers are almost set (a tiny bit of glossiness in the center is good, as they will continue to set).
Let sit for 5-10 minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely.

Easy Lobster Rolls

I had my first lobster roll in Boston and it was incredible. It was an unforgettable meal that was surprisingly easy to recreate at home. After researching the different varieties of Lobster rolls, I chose this New England Lobster roll, or “lobster salad roll,” because it is so quick and easy to make with only a few simple ingredients and a homemade mayonnaise base. A fresh, thick hoagie roll is loaded with chunks of cold lobster meat and tossed in a creamy mayonnaise mixture. The addition of toppings like fresh lettuce and chives creates the most perfect crunch in every bite.

Working with lobster is easier than you think. Boiling lobster only takes a few minutes and you can be eating a delicious classic lobster roll in no time at all! For more detailed directions on how to prepare lobster tails check out The Best Lobster Tails. These rolls became an instant family favorite that we just couldn’t get enough of! Your family will go crazy over them too!

Ingredients in Lobster Rolls:

Just a few simple ingredients come together to make an no stress meal that is light and tasty. Since it is tricky in Utah to find a whole lobster, I used 4 lobster tails to equal a pound.

Lobster tails: Select a lobster that feels heavy for its size.
Mayonnaise: Combines with the Dijon mustard to make a thick and creamy sauce.
Dijon mustard: Adds a bold kick of tangy spice.
Chives: Chopped chives add mild flavor similar to onion or garlic.
Salt and pepper: Used to season the meat to taste.
Hoagie rolls: This thick, soft bread holds up well to being loaded with sweet lobster and creamy sauce.
Optional: Bib lettuce: Adding lettuce to your roll will give the perfect fresh crunch to each bite.

How to Make a Lobster Roll:

A decadent lobster filled roll is quick and easy to make and is ready in no time! Simply boil the lobster tail and remove the meat, then toss the meat with the seasonings and creamy mayonnaise and dijon mustard. In under 15 minutes, you will be ready to build your roll!

Cook Lobster: Bring a large pot to boil. Add the lobster tails and cook for 5-8 minutes until they turn red. Remove from the water and place in an ice bath for 5 minutes.
Prepare Lobster: Remove the lobster from the ice bath and crack the shells and remove the meat. Cut into large chunks.
Stir Lobster Mixture: In a medium sized bowl add the lobster, mayonnaise, Dijon Mustard, chives, and salt and pepper to taste.
Assemble Rolls: Cut the hoagie rolls and add bib lettuce and stuff with lobster mixture. Sprinkle with paprika if desired.

Tips for the BEST Lobster Rolls:

This lobster roll is a New England style roll. Although there are many ways to build this unforgettable roll, I have gathered the BEST ideas and tips to help you make the perfect lobster roll. Your friends and family will rave about this insanely delicious sandwich!

Bread: Do not use hard bread, soft bread only! Hot dog buns are common in many lobster roll recipes.
Serve with: Serve the lobster cold with favorites like potato salad, pasta salad, coleslaw, grilled corn, or mac and cheese.
Do not overcook lobster meat: If you cook the lobster meat too long, it will become chewy and tough. Instead, stick to the recipe directions and use a meat thermometer to make sure your meat reaches 135-140 degrees.
Sauce: Spread the mayonnaise/mustard mixture directly on the bun in addition to or in place of mixing it together with the meat. Make your sandwich drip with the sauce or give it a lighter touch. This versatile sandwich gives you control over how creamy your sandwich is.
Toasted bun: Butter and toast your bun before adding ingredients. The contrast of the cold lobster salad with the warm bread that has a buttery edge will be amazing!

How to Make a Maine Style Lobster Roll:

Maine style lobster rolls differ from New England Style Lobster rolls because they are served warm and dripping with butter instead of a mayonnaise mixture. So, instead of putting your lobster into an ice bath, carefully remove the meat from the shells after you boil or steam them. Then, cut into large chunks and toss with melted butter. Finally, serve them on a warm, toasted, buttery bun. Yum!

Can You Make Lobster Rolls Ahead?

Yes! Prepare the lobster meat and mayonnaise mixture ahead then refrigerate it for up to 4 days. If you do not plan to use all the meat right away, the cooked lobster will remain good for 3-4 months in the freezer. However, do not toss the meat in mayonnaise mixture before freezing. Instead, freeze the meat separately. Then, when you are ready to prepare your lobster roll, simply thaw the lobster in the refrigerator. Once the meat is thawed, toss in the creamy sauce and build your sandwich!
