👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Method

1. Cream the butter and sugar

In a bowl, beat butter, brown sugar, and white sugar until light and fluffy (about 2–3 minutes).

2. Add wet ingredients

Mix in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

3. Combine dry ingredients

In another bowl, whisk flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.

4. Make the dough

Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture. Stir until just combined.

5. Add oats & chocolate

Fold in rolled oats and chocolate chips for texture and richness.

6. Rest the dough (Important!)

Let the dough rest for 20–30 minutes, this helps oats absorb moisture and improves texture.

7. Shape cookies

Scoop dough into balls and place on a lined baking tray.

8. Bake

Bake at 180°C (350°F) for 10–12 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.

9. Cool & serve

Let cookies cool slightly, they will firm up while staying chewy inside.
