Equipment

  • 1 baking sheets
  • 1 parchment paper
  • 2 mixing bowls
  • 1 electric mixer or whisk
  • 1 set measuring cups and spoons
  • 1 spatula
  • 1 cookie scoop or spoon

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups rolled oats
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • ½ cup Easter-themed sprinkles

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  • In another bowl, combine the rolled oats, flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir until evenly mixed.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in the chocolate chips and Easter-themed sprinkles, making sure they are evenly distributed throughout the cookie dough.
  • Using a cookie scoop or spoon, drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  • Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
  • For a fun variation, consider adding chopped nuts or dried fruits to the dough.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
