Delicious!! My hubby loves this cookie at Crumbl so I was thrilled to stumble upon this recipe. They taste so much like the real deal, especially when warmed up in the microwave for a few seconds!
I’m not much of a baker and making cookies typically sounds like more fun than it ends up being but these were pretty simple! And they turn out chewy and soft with the perfect amount of sweetness from the icing. This will be one of our regulars now!

This sounds great Kaitlin. I’m happy you enjoyed them!

Oh my goodness, soo good!! I’ve made these cookies twice now for my grandparents and they have INHALED them both times. They are always so moist and have a perfectly soft, chewy texture. I added some finely chopped pecans to some, which added a nice flavor and texture. I typically end up with 12 cookies and bake them for 7 minutes. Thank you for this amazing recipe! (the grandparents thank you too)
Chahinez
You’re very welcome Catherine. I’m glad to hear your grandparents loved them.

Can I use quick oats ?
