Preparation
Step 1
On a cookie sheet sprayed with pam, drop tablespoon sized dollops of cookie dough about 2-3 inches apart. Dough will be tacky. Use your finger to shape and slightly press each dollop a little bit flatter and round. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes. Once cookies have cooled, make your frosting:
In a saucepan, over medium heat melt 3 tablespoons of butter, 4 tablespoons of milk and 1/2 cup brown sugar together. Stir constantly once it begins to boil. Stir for 1-2 minutes. Make sure the mixture doesn't burn. Take the pan off the heat and let it cool slightly. About 15 minutes. Add and mix thoroughly 1 cup powdered sugar. Frost each cookie with a little dollop of the icing and eat them up. Makes roughly 35-40 3 inch cookies.
