Preparation

Preheat oven to 375 °F (190 °C). Lightly butter or spray 2 large baking sheets or line with parchment paper.

In large bowl, using electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in corn syrup. Beat in eggs until light and creamy, then vanilla extract. In separate bowl, combine oats, flour, baking powder and salt. Stir into butter mixture alternately with milk, making 3 additions of dry ingredients and 2 of milk. Stir in chocolate chips.

Drop heaping tablespoons (15 mL) of batter onto prepared baking sheets at least 2 inches (5 cm) apart. Bake for about 15 min or until golden around the edges yet soft in centre. Let baking sheets cool and repeat with remaining batter.

Tips

Variation: Add 1 cup (250 mL) dried cranberries or tart cherries and 3/4 cup (180 mL) chopped toasted walnuts or almonds with chocolate chips.

To make ahead: Drop dough onto baking sheets, freeze until firm. Transfer to airtight container; freeze for up to 3 months. Place frozen dough on prepared baking sheets; let stand at room temperature for 10 min. Bake as directed, increasing baking time to 18 min if necessary.
