Ingredients
Scale

- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp cinnamon
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¾ cup brown sugar
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp milk
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1–2 tbsp milk
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk flour, oats, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- In another bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy.
- Mix in egg, vanilla, and milk until smooth.
- Add dry ingredients and mix just until combined.
- Scoop dough onto baking sheet, spacing cookies apart.
- Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are set and centers are soft.
- Cool cookies completely.

Notes
- These cookies are soft-centered with chewy edges and a delicate vanilla icing that melts in your mouth.
- Cookies will spread slightly during baking; if you prefer a rounder cookie, gently press the dough ball before baking.
- For softer centers, bake closer to 10 minutes; for firmer centers, bake toward 12 minutes.
- Let the icing set fully before stacking or serving to prevent smudging.
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or freeze for longer storage.
