Recipe Summary Danish Oatmeal Cookies
Yes, technically they're oatmeal cookies but not the kind you're used to. These light-as-air cookies will be one of your favorites. Whenever I bring them to an event I hear people asking, 'Who made these cookies? I have to have the recipe!'
Ingredients | Easy Oatmeal Cookie Recipes1 cup all-purpose flour½ teaspoon baking soda¼ teaspoon salt1 cup butter, softened1 cup confectioners' sugar2 teaspoons vanilla extract1 cup oatmeal1 cup chopped pecans1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, or as neededDirectionsPreheat an oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.In a bowl, mix the flour, baking soda, and salt. In a separate large bowl, mix the butter, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, and vanilla until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Stir in the flour mixture; gently stir in the oatmeal and pecans and lightly mix until combined.With a spoon, drop about 1 scant tablespoon of dough per cookie onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake in the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 20 minutes. Let cool completely before sprinkling cookies with confectioners' sugar.These cookies freeze well so I often make a double batch. The trick is getting some into the freezer before they're all gone!You can use walnuts instead of pecans and regular oats for quick-cooking oats.Info | Easy Oatmeal Cookie Recipesprep:
