Ingredients

3/4 c butter, room temperature

2 c brown sugar

2 eggs

1/4 tsp salt

1 tsp cinnamon

1 tsp baking powder

1 tsp baking soda

3 tbsp hot water

2 1/4 c flour

2 1/4 c rolled oats

ICING

1 egg white, beaten

2 tbsp milk

1 tsp vanilla

2 c icing sugar

3/4 c butter, room temperature

Directions

Cream butter and sugar in medium - large bowl. Beat in eggs. Dissolve baking soda in hot water and add to mixture. Mix remaining dry ingredients and add to bowl. Stir thoroughly. Dough will be quite sticky.

Scoop cookies with small cookie scoop onto parchment covered baking sheets. Spread out 1 1/2 inches apart. Flatten balls slightly with fork. You should get 36-40 cookie dough balls.

Bake @ 350 for 9 minutes. Let cool for a couple minutes and then transfer to wire racks.

While cookies are cooling, beat egg white until peaks form. Add 1 cup icing sugar and beat until mixed. Add vanilla and milk and beat again. Add remaining icing sugar and butter and beat until fluffy.

Once cookies have completely cooled, distribute icing evenly over half the cookies. Then top each iced cookie with another cookie.

Store in air tight container for up to one week. Best enjoyed fresh.
