Iced Oatmeal Cookies

I love Iced Oatmeal Cookies and I saw this on Pinterest.  You can find the original recipe at Mother Thyme.

2 cups rolled oats
2 cups flour
1 tbs baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp fresh nutmeg
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temp
1 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup sugar
2 large eggs, room temp
1 tsp vanilla extract

Glaze
2 cups confectioners sugar
3 tbs milk

Preheat oven to 350.

Line cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside.

Place oats in a food processor and pulse for about 10 seconds until course.

Mix oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg, set aside.

Cream butter and sugars until fluffy.

Add in eggs one at a time then vanilla extract.

Gradually add in the dry ingredients and mix to combine.

Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop dough and place on cookie sheets about 2 inches apart.

Bake for 10-12 minutes until the bottoms to being to turn light brown.

Cool on the cookie sheet for about 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Glaze:

Mix the confectioners sugar and milk until smooth.  I used a medium gladware round bowl.

Quickly dip the tops of the cookies into the glaze and let excess drip off.

Place back on wire rack until glaze sets.

Store cookies in an airtight container.



These came out really well!
