Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Iced Oatmeal Cookies Delight.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and arrange the racks in the top and bottom thirds of the oven.
Step 2
To make cleanup a breeze, line two cookie sheets with silicone liners.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt, creating a fragrant blend that will elevate your cookies.
Step 4
Now, in a larger bowl, combine the softened butter, brown sugar, and white sugar.
Step 5
Using an electric mixer, beat this mixture on medium-high speed for about two minutes until it becomes creamy and smooth, remembering to scrape down the sides for an even mix.
Step 6
Next, add in the eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until everything is well blended—this should take about a minute.
Step 7
Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the butter mixture, mixing on low speed just until combined.
Step 8
Then, fold in the oats, raisins, and pecans, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dough.
Step 9
Using a 2-inch cookie scoop, drop generous amounts of dough onto your prepared cookie sheets, making sure to space them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
Step 10
Pop the sheets into your preheated oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes, rotating them halfway through for even baking.
Step 11
You’ll know they’re ready when they turn a lovely light golden brown.
Step 12
Once baked, transfer the cookies to a wire rack to cool completely, which should take about 30 minutes.
Step 13
While the cookies are cooling, let’s whip up a simple icing.
Step 14
In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, softened butter, and 1 tablespoon of apple juice until you achieve a smooth consistency.
Step 15
If it’s too thick, feel free to add a little more juice until it’s just right for drizzling.
Step 16
Once your cookies have cooled, drizzle the icing over them and let it set for about 30 minutes before indulging.
Step 17
Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in every bite!.
