Old-Fashioned Iced Oatmeal Cookies – YUM. These Old-Fashioned Iced Oatmeal Cookies are so much better than the store bought cookies you had as a child, yet they still are full of nostalgia. They are soft in the middle, chewy on the edges, perfect amount of sweetness, what more could you want!
Growing up I always wanted the store bought treats, now, as an adult, I still want those same treats but without all the added ickiness (preservatives etc.) so I opt to make my own “healthy” version. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t necessarily call these cookies healthy, but they are free of all the chemicals you might eat if you bought them from the store. So, that is a win for me and I will go ahead and call them healthy!
