A soft chewy cookie filled with dark chocolate chips and crunchy oatmeal with a hint of almond.
Preheat oven to 350. Combine butter and sugars in a large mixing bowl. Beat until smooth and fluffy. Add eggs and almond extract. In another large mixing bowl, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and oatmeal. Slowly mix the dry ingredients in with the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. Drop by heaping teaspoon onto an ungreased (or parchment- lined) baking sheet. Bake for 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely before storing in an air-tight container.
