For the glaze:

  • 1 cup of powdered sugar

  2. In a bowl, combine and whisk your dry ingredients: Oats, flour, baking powder, cornstarch, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  3. In your stand mixer cream the butter, sugars and vanilla extract together for about 2 minutes.
  4. Next, while the mixer is on low, add the eggs and mix until incorporated.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until it forms a nice dough, this will take a few minutes.

  8. Once the cookies are cool, whisk together all of the ingredients for the glaze in a mixing bowl. Dip the tops of the cookies in and swirl to coat.
  9. Let set for 30 minutes and enjoy!
Iced Oatmeal Cookies

I like oatmeal cookies like mountains but if you prefer a flat cookie first pour the oats into a food processor and pulse about 10 times to smooth the oats. From here you can roll the dough once ready into a log and slice it for the flat coin look.
