Oatmeal Cookies

• 2 Sticks Butter, Softened
• 1 C. Firmly Packed Brown Sugar
• 1/2 C. Sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 tsp. Vanilla Extract
• 1 1/2 C. Flour
• 1 tsp. Baking Soda
• 1 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
• 1/4 tsp. Nutmeg
• 1/2 tsp. Salt
• 3 C. Rolled Oats
• 2 C. Mix-Ins (Chocolate Chips, Butterscotch Chips, Peanut Butter Chips, Raisins, M&Ms, etc.)

Preheat oven to 350

In a large bowl beat Butter, Brown Sugar & Sugar until creamy. Add Eggs & Vanilla then beat well.

(If you want to mix dry ingredients separately, go for it - I find it's often an unnecessary step with extra dishes) Add Flour, Baking Soda, Cinnamon, Nutmeg and Salt. Mix well.

Stir in Oats until incorporated evenly into dough mixture. Add in your mix-ins. Use more or less, in any combination to your liking.

Drop by rounded Tablespoons onto ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 10-12 minutes or until light golden brown. Let cool on racks for a couple of minutes before removing for easier handling.
