Small-batch Oatmeal Cookies With Icing
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and line 1 baking sheet with parchment paper or silicone baking mat.

  2. In a food processor, pulse oatmeal 5 or 6 times, until oats are partially chopped, but not completely ground. Set aside.

  3. In a small bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, nutmeg, and processed oatmeal.

  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together melted, slightly cooled butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.

  5. Whisk in egg yolk and vanilla until well-combined. Add flour and oatmeal mixture and use a spoon to stir together until well-mixed.

  6. Drop 6 rounded spoonfuls (about 1.5-ounces each) on prepared baking sheet as far apart as possible (these cookies spread) and bake until cookies look just set: 12 minutes for softer cookies, 14 to 16 minutes for crunchy cookies. Cool on the baking sheet until cool enough to handle. If icing, cool completely.

  7. In a small bowl, stir together powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and 1 teaspoon of milk. Add just enough milk, up to 1 teaspoon more, to get a drizzling consistency. Spoon over cooled cookies. Allow icing to set for at least 15 minutes, and enjoy!
