This recipe starts with the brown butter, and as it bubbles on the stove top, your kitchen fills with a caramel aroma. Mix it into your cookie dough, and you get a slightly toffee-like taste that is sweet and savory. It is the perfect way to give the traditional old-fashioned cookie a more complex flavor. Aah…new memories. If you’ve missed my other new cookie recipe this week, check out these drop sugar cookies, buckeye cookies and eggnog cookies!
Reasons why you will love my Iced Oatmeal Cookies
The old-fashioned flavor is amped up with the sweet and savory brown butter flavor. They are surprisingly full of warm spices, and the vanilla icing is the perfect topping. The Iced Oatmeal Cookie is a great alternative to chocolate cookies. This is the perfect any-time cookie since it goes with coffee, iced tea, milk, and even a glass of red wine! A cookie lover’s favorite since it satisfies the craving for a crisp yet chewy cookie. Old-fashioned oats will add a chewiness to the cookie. You can use quick oats, but they will affect the texture and will not have the “chewy oatmeal cookie” you are looking for.
Start by fluffing the flour in the bag or canister. Grab your measuring cup and spoon the flour into it. (Instead of sticking the cup into the bag). Level the flour across the top of the measuring cup by scrubbing a knife across the top. Don’t skip these steps and scoop the flour directly from the canister. Correctly measured 1 cup of flour should with between 120 ad 125 grams.
