Scale

3/4 cup softened butter
1 and 1/2 cups packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat together butter and brown sugar until creamy. Add egg, egg yolk, and vanilla; mix well.
In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the wet mixture until just combined.
Stir in whole rolled oats and then blend the remaining oats into a coarse flour.
Gently fold in the blended oats and chocolate chips until no flour streaks remain.
