Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Stir in the oats.
- Drop by rounded tablespoons onto the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown.
- Let cool on baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
- While cookies are cooling, prepare the icing: In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add more milk if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Once cookies are completely cooled, spread or drizzle icing over the tops. Let set before serving.
Notes
For a thicker icing, use less milk. Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature.
