Soft and delicious and filled with warm spices, here\u2019s how to whip up a batch:<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-preparing-the-cookie-dough\">Preparing the Cookie Dough<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Blend Oats<\/strong>: Add the oats to a blender or food processor and pulse 5-6 times. Be careful not to over-blend the oats! You should have a mix of fine and larger pieces.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dry Ingredients<\/strong>: In a medium bowl, whisk together the pulsed oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Wet Ingredients<\/strong>: In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes. Add eggs, molasses, and vanilla and mix until combined.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Combine<\/strong>: Add the dry ingredients to the wet and mix until just combined. Cover the bowl and chill in the refrigerator for an hour.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-baking-the-cookies-and-mixing-up-the-glaze\">Baking the Cookies and Mixing Up the Glaze<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Preheat Oven, Prepare Pan<\/strong>: When the dough is nearly done chilling, preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bake<\/strong>: Use a medium cookie scoop to scoop the dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving 2 inches between them. Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the pan for 3 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to finish cooling.\u00a0<\/li>\n<li><strong>Make the Glaze<\/strong>: Once the cookies are completely cooled, make the glaze by whisking the milk into the powdered sugar. It should be fairly thick so it doesn\u2019t run into the ridges and crevices of the cookie. This is what gives it that signature iced oatmeal cookie look. If the icing is too runny, add a little more powdered sugar. It should stick but not run.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Add Icing, Let it Set<\/strong>: Carefully dip the very tops of the cookies into the icing and shake off the excess. Don\u2019t dip the cookies too deep, otherwise, they won\u2019t have the right look for a classic iced oatmeal cookie. Let the icing set for an hour or two before serving.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"Top-down view of iced oatmeal cookies in a pan.\" class=\"wp-image-234073\" title=\"Perfect for the holidays, these iced oatmeal cookies are soft, moist, and packed with cinnamon and nutmeg for cozy spiced flavor.

You CAN use quick oats if that\u2019s all you have, but you should skip the step where the oats are pulsed. Quick oats are also par-cooked, so the texture of the cookies may end up a little different. If you have them available, always use old-fashioned oats in this recipe for best results. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Don\u2019t Over-Pulse the Oats!<\/strong> This is really important. You don\u2019t want to make oat flour out of them and you don\u2019t want too many giant pieces of rolled oats. It should be just a handful of quick pulses with the blender or food processor to get a nice mixture of sizes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Icing Consistency:<\/strong> Thicker is better for the icing. Not only will it set up better, but it will be less likely to fill all the little nooks and crannies on the cookie. Just a couple tablespoons of milk should be enough. <\/li>\n<li><strong>Frosting the Cookies:<\/strong> Don\u2019t dip the cookies too deep in the icing. The goal is to get the icing to stick to the highest ridges of the cookie but not into the lowest grooves. I set the top of the cookie in the icing and gave it a little jiggle before lifting it straight up and gently wiping off any excess icing on the side of the bowl. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-quick-tips__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-quick-tips --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"An iced oatmeal cookie, after being dipped in the glaze.\" class=\"wp-image-234074\" title=\"Perfect for the holidays, these iced oatmeal cookies are soft, moist, and packed with cinnamon and nutmeg for cozy spiced flavor.

Frozen cookies will stay good for up to 3 months. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- .block-leftovers-callout__inner --><\/div>\n<p> <!-- .block-leftovers-callout --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-234075\" srcset=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-333x500.jpg 333w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-150x225.jpg 150w\" data-lazy-sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/iced-oatmeal-cookies\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Iced Oatmeal Cookies\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1200x1799.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1200x1799.jpg\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1799\" src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1200x1799.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-234075\" srcset=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-333x500.jpg 333w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1025x1536.jpg 1025w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-150x225.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/iced-oatmeal-cookies\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Iced Oatmeal Cookies\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-3-1200x1799.jpg\"\/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<section class=\"block-post-listing cwp-large layout-4up-grid\">\n<header>\n<p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-other-holiday-cookie-recipes-to-make-this-season\">Other Holiday Cookie Recipes to Make This Season:<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<\/header>\n<\/section>\n<div class=\"block-area block-area-before-recipe\">\n<div class=\"block-pinterest-cta cwp-large\">\n<p class=\"block-pinterest-cta__title\">Pin this now to find it later<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/iced-oatmeal-cookies\/&amp;media=https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/iced-oatmeal-cookies-4.jpg&amp;description=Iced Oatmeal Cookies\" title=\"Share on Pinterest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" class=\"wp-element-button\" data-postid=\"234052\" data-pin-do=\"none\" data-social-network=\"Pinterest\" data-social-action=\"Pin\" data-social-target=\"https:\/\/therecipecritic.com\/iced-oatmeal-cookies\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\">Pin It<\/a><\/div>\n<p><!-- This site is converting visitors into subscribers and customers with OptinMonster - https:\/\/optinmonster.com :: Campaign Title: TRC - RECIPE SAVE - DT - INL --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/ OptinMonster --><\/p>\n<p><!-- This site is converting visitors into subscribers and customers with OptinMonster - https:\/\/optinmonster.com :: Campaign Title: TRC - RECIPE SAVE - MB - INL --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/ OptinMonster --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-234053\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"234053\" data-servings=\"24\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-cwp-food\">\n<div class=\"cwp-food-content\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions-container wprm-recipe-234053-instructions-container wprm-block-text-normal\" data-recipe=\"234053\">\n<div class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction-group\">\n<ul class=\"wprm-recipe-instructions\">\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-234053-step-0-0\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">Add the oats to a blender or food processor and pulse 5-6 times. Be careful not to over-blend the oats! You should have a mix of fine and larger pieces. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-234053-step-0-1\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">In a medium bowl, whisk together the pulsed oats, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-234053-step-0-2\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">In a large bowl, beat the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes.

Bake for 10-12 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the pan for 3 minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack to finish cooling. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-234053-step-0-6\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">Once the cookies are completely cooled, make the glaze by whisking the milk into the powdered sugar. It should be fairly thick so it doesn&#8217;t run into the ridges and crevices of the cookie. This is what gives it that signature iced oatmeal cookie look. If the icing is too runny, add a little more powdered sugar. It should stick but not run.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li id=\"wprm-recipe-234053-step-0-7\" class=\"wprm-recipe-instruction\" style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<p><span style=\"display: block;\">Carefully dip the very tops of the cookies into the icing and shake off the excess. Don&#8217;t dip the cookies too deep, otherwise, they won&#8217;t have the right look for a classic iced oatmeal cookie.  Let the icing set for an hour or two before serving. <\/span><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"cwp-food-nutrition\">\n<p><span class=\"wprm-nutrition-label-text-nutrition-container
