Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies




1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsps steel-cut oats
1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter large rimmed baking sheet. Sift first 4 ingredients into medium bowl. Using electric mixer, beat butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add sugar and vanilla; beat until blended. Add flour mixture and beat until moist clumps form. Mix in oats with spatula until evenly distributed (dough will be very firm). Add chocolate chips and knead gently to blend.
2Using moistened palms, shape 1 generous tablespoon dough into ball. Place on prepared sheet; flatten to 2-inch round. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing rounds about 2 inches apart.
3Bake cookies until center is slightly firm and top is cracked, about 14 minutes. Cool on sheet.
