Preheat oven to 375°F.

Cream together brown sugar, eggs, butter, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl until smooth and well combined.

In a separate bowl, combine baking soda, all-purpose flour, and quick-cooking oats. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, blending until a smooth dough forms.

Stir in chocolate chips, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough for a delectable burst of sweetness in every bite.
-
Using a tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto a baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie to allow for spreading during baking.

Once baked to perfection, remove the cookies from the oven and transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes:
-
For convenience, you may opt to use canned navy beans. However, be sure to rinse them well before pureeing to remove any excess sodium or preservatives.

If you prefer, you can substitute raisins for the chocolate chips to add a touch of natural sweetness to your cookies. 🍇
