Grandma Ann's Iced Oatmeal Spice Cookies image

These tasty oatmeal spice cookies were a real Crew-pleaser! They're the best of both worlds. It combines a molasses cookie and an oatmeal cookie. Both are old-fashioned favorites and when combined make one yummy cookie. Each cookie is lightly crunchy on the outside, soft and chewy inside with just the right amount of spices....

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 17

COOKIES
1 c butter, softened
1 c sugar
1/2 c brown sugar
1/2 c sorghum or molasses
2 eggs
1 1/2 c all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
2 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ginger
1 c raisins
3 c quick oats
ICING
1 c confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 Tbsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp vanilla

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Prepare cookie sheets with baking parchment or a silicone liner.
  • 2. Cream butter and sugars until light and fluffy. Beat in sorghum or molasses and the eggs until well blended.
  • 3. Stir together the flour, salt, soda, and spices.
  • 4. Add the dry ingredients to the creamed mixture. Mix until well mixed.
  • 5. Add raisins.
  • 6. Fold in the oats and stir well.
  • 7. Drop by tablespoons onto prepared cookie sheets. Bake for about 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Allow to set about 3 minutes on sheets, then remove to wire rack for cooling.
  • 8. When cool, you can ice with royal icing. Combine icing ingredients and stir until smooth. Add a little bit more lemon juice if too thick, or more powdered sugar if too thin.
  • 9. Drizzle from the end of a teaspoon over cookies. Or, place a teaspoon of icing in a dollop on each cookie and spread with the back of the spoon. Allow to harden before storing.
  • 10. I also discovered some leftover packaged cookie icing in my pantry and decided to ice some of the cookies with this. You can make swirls or stripes.

These cookies were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll add some more butter or milk next time.
