Ingredients

Ingredients:

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter; melted

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar

2 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3/4 cup unbleached all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats (not instant)

1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Nonstick cooking spray

Preparation

Directions:

Heat the waffle iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.

In a large bowl, whisk the butter and brown sugar until smooth. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the oats and chocolate chips.

Coat the grids of the waffle iron with nonstick cooking spray. Use a tablespoon or small ice cream scoop to portion out a cookie onto each waffle square. Close the iron and cook until set and beginning to brown, 1-1/2 minutes, or depending on the heat of your waffle iron. Use a thin metal spatula to transfer the cooked cookie to a wire rack and repeat with the remaining dough, coating the grids with spray as necessary.
