Ingredients
Oatmeal Cookies
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 7 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
- ½ cup brown sugar packed
- 1 large egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 ¼ cups quick-cooking oats
Vanilla Icing
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon whole milk
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
Oatmeal Cookies
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper, set aside.
- Whisk together the flour, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, and nutmeg and set aside.
- Using mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar for 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Mix in the egg and vanilla until fully combined.
- Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined.
- Add the oats and mix in until evenly distributed.
- Using a small, medium or large cookie scoop, place scoops on the baking sheets 2-inches apart. Bake cookies until lightly golden brown along the edges. (Small Cookies (1 tablespoon) Bake 9-10 minutes, Medium Cookies (2 tablespoons) 11-13 minutes, Large Cookies (¼ cup scoop) 14-18 minutes.
- Let cool slightly on the trays for 2 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before icing.
Vanilla Icing
- While the cookies cool make the icing by whisking together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla. (The icing should be really thick, yet pourable so you can dip the cookies into the icing.)
- Once the cookies are completely cool, lightly dip the tops of the cookies into the icing and lay them back on the wire rack icing side up. Let them sit to allow the icing to fully set for several hours. To set icing quickly, place cookies in fridge for 5-10 minutes.
