  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until combined. Add in the egg and vanilla and mix until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in the flour, oats, cinnamon, nutmeg, baking soda, and salt, making sure to scrape the sides until combined.
  4. Using a large cookie scoop, scoop out 8 equally sized cookie dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
  5. Gently press down on the cookies to about 1 inch in thickness.
Baking
  1. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, ensuring not to overbake for a soft and gooey texture.
  2. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 20 minutes, then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Glazing
  1. To make the glaze, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies.

Notes

Store cookies in an airtight container, adding a slice of bread to keep them soft. You can chill dough for up to 48 hours or freeze it for longer storage.
