Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Grease your cookie sheets or line them with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

In a large bowl, cream the butter, white sugar, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla together until the mixture is very smooth and fluffy.

In a separate bowl, mix the flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda together. If you have a food processor, blend the rolled oats until they are fine and then add them to your flour mixture.
-
Stir the butter mixture into the flour and oatmeal mixture until everything is well blended.
-
Add in the chocolate chips and walnuts. Stir until they are mixed evenly.

Roll the dough into golf ball-sized balls and place them on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 8–10 minutes, making sure they don’t overbake.
