Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies (Stand Mixer)

I have been having so much fun with my new stand mixer (that the hubby bought me for Valentine's Day). Tonight, in an effort to keep the cookie jar full, I found this yummy recipe in my "Mixer Bible" cookbook:


Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned rolled oats

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg
2. Place butter in the mixer bowl. Attach the flat beater and mixer bowl to the mixer. Set to speed 4 and beat until soft and creamy. Increase to speed 6 and beat in brown sugar and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and vanilla. Reduce speed to stir and mix in flour mixture, in 3 additions. Mix in chocolate chips and oats until evenly incorporated.
3. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls (15 ml), 2 inches (5 cm) apart, onto prepared baking sheets. Bake in middle of preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden and slightly firm to the touch, Let cool on sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
