How to Make Iced Oatmeal Cookies – Crumbl Copycat
Getting started on these iced oatmeal cookies is a piece of cake (or a cookie, in this case). Here’s how to take your kitchen from "zero" to "cookie hero" in no time!
Preheat that oven to 350°F and grab a baking sheet, lining it with parchment paper. Trust us, you don’t want a sticky situation!
Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until it’s all mixed and fluffy. Add in the egg and vanilla extract, and mix until dreamy and light.
Combine those dry ingredients—flour, oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt—making sure to scrape the sides of the bowl for a thorough blend.
Scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheet in equal sizes (about 8 cookies).
Press them down gently to about an inch thick. Those cookies need their time in the oven, so pop them in for 10 minutes. Just don’t go overboard; we’re aiming for soft and gooey here!
Cool the cookies on the baking sheet for 20 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Give them some air to breathe!
While they cool, whip up that glaze because it’s time for the final touch!
