Method
Preparation
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
- Gently fold in the rolled oats until evenly distributed.
- Use a cookie scoop to drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto a lined baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden brown.
- Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Icing
- In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth.
- Drizzle the icing over the cooled cookies.
Notes
For perfect cookies, do not overmix the dough. You can experiment with icing flavors by adding almond extract or food coloring.
