Dark Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

A supremely rich and satisfying cookie.

3/4 cup flour

1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 stick unsalted butter

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons steel-cut oats

1/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350° F. Butter large rimmed baking sheet.
Sift flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt into medium bowl.
In a separate large bowl use an electric mixer, to beat butter until fluffy. Add sugar and vanilla extract; beat until blended. Add the 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.
Moisten your palms and shape 1 generous tablespoon dough into ball. Place on baking sheet, flatten to 2-inch round. Repeat with remaining dough, spacing rounds about 2 inches apart.
Bake cookies for 14 minutes, until center is slightly firm and top is cracked. Let cool before enjoying!
