Note
For chewier cookies, use old-fashioned rolled oats and blend them less finely. For crispier cookies, use quick oats or blend until very fine.
Ensure butter is softened to room temperature for proper creaming. If using salted butter, reduce the added salt slightly.
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. They can also be frozen for up to 3 months.
