Recipe Tips
- When creaming together the butter and sugars, beat them until light and fluffy, as this will help to aerate the dough and create a tender texture in the finished cookies.
- Use a cookie scoop to portion out the dough onto the baking sheets to ensure they all come out in a uniform size.
- If you prefer your cookies to be slightly flatter, gently press down on the dough with the back of a spoon or a spatula before baking.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheets before removing them, as this will help them to set and prevent them from falling apart.
- When making the icing, start with a small amount of milk and gradually add more as needed to achieve your desired consistency. You can always add more milk, but you can't take it away, so go slow!
Variations
- For a chocolatey twist on this classic recipe, add in in 1 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips to the cookie dough before baking.
- Make these cookies even more festive and flavorful by swapping out the cinnamon and nutmeg for pumpkin pie spice or apple pie spice, which will add a cozy fall-inspired touch.
- Add in ½ cup of chopped pecans or walnuts to the cookie dough before baking. The nuts will add a delicious crunch and nuttiness to the cookies.
- Add ½ cup of rainbow sprinkles to the cookie dough before baking. The sprinkles will add a cheerful pop of color and a sweet crunch to each cookie that's perfect for a birthday celebration.
Storing & Freezing
Storing: Once cooled, store iced oatmeal cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
Freezing: Place the oatmeal cookies in an airtight container or freezer bag and freeze for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw the cookies at room temperature for a few hours or in the refrigerator overnight.
FAQ
Yes, be sure to use gluten-free oats and a gluten-free all-purpose flour blend, and check the labels of all other ingredients for wheat-containing ingredients.
Yes, however, this will make the texture of the cookies may be a bit more crumbly. If using old-fashioned oats, pulse them in a food processor for about 10-15 seconds before adding to the dough. This will help break down the oats a bit and make them more uniform in size.
