Ingredients

- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda

Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3
Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and sea salt.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 6
Fold in the rolled oats, dark chocolate chunks, dried cherries, crushed potato chips, and toasted coconut flakes until evenly distributed.
Step 7
Using a cookie scoop or a tablespoon, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 8
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still slightly soft.
Step 9
Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 10
Enjoy your experimental oatmeal cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite beverage!
