Description

Soft and chewy oatmeal cookies made with brown sugar and oats, finished with a naturally pink strawberry icing—comforting, fruity, and perfect for spring snacking.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda
  • 1/2 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp freeze-dried strawberries, ground into a powder
  • 12 tbsp milk
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract (for icing)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together oats, flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and both sugars until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the egg and vanilla to the creamed mixture and mix well.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.
  6. Use a cookie scoop to form dough balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing about 2 inches apart.
  7. Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until edges are golden and centers are set. Allow cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. For the icing, mix powdered sugar, ground freeze-dried strawberries, vanilla, and milk in a bowl until smooth.
  9. Drizzle or dip the cooled cookies in the icing and allow to set before serving.

Notes

  • Ensure cookies are completely cool before icing to prevent it from melting.
  • Adjust milk in icing for desired consistency—thicker for dipping, thinner for drizzling.
  • Freeze-dried strawberries give natural color and flavor without moisture.
