Preparation

Step 1

1. Place two racks in the upper and lower thirds of the
oven and preheat to 350°. Rub two baking sheets with
butter.
2. In a food processor, grind the oats to a coarse meal that still has a few large flakes, about 10 seconds. Sift the dry ingredients into a large bowl, pouring back into the bowl any bits of grains or other ingredients that may remain in the sifter. Add the ground oats to the dry ingredients. In a small bowl, whisk the butter and eggs until combined. Using a spatula, fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
3. Scoop balls of dough about 3 tablespoons in size onto
the cookie sheets about 3 inches apart. Bake for 16 to 20
minutes, rotating the sheets halfway through. When the
tops are evenly brown, take them out and transfer to a
wire rack. Repeat until all of the dough is gone.
4. Make the frosting: In a bowl, whisk together all the
ingredients until smooth and about the consistency of
honey.
5. Drizzle the frosting over the cookies, making lattice
designs over the entire tops of the cookies. Let the
frosting set for 30 minutes before eating. The cookies
can be stored in an airtight container for up to three
days.
