Salty Sweet Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

 












 
1 cup unsalted butter (2 sticks), room temperature
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
1 egg
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups old fashioned rolled oats
1 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 package milk chocolate chips
1/2 cup raw sugar
1 1/2 Tablespoons sea salt

1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and grease several cookie sheets.
2. Cream together the sugars and butter using an electric mixer.
3. Add in the egg and beat until the batter is smooth.  Add in the corn syrup and vanilla, beating until incorporated.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oats, flour, baking soda, and salt.  Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet mixture, mixing on low until the batter comes together.
5. Stir in the chocolate chips.  Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
6. In a small dish, combine the raw sugar and sea salt.
7. Roll the dough into 1-inch balls.  Roll the balls in the sea salt mixture and place on the cookie sheet.  Flatten slightly with the palm of your hand.
8. Bake for 8-10 minutes, until the edges of the cookie are slightly golden.  Allow to cool for 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring.
