Ingredients 

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ cup molasses
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • ½ teaspoon ground cloves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups rolled oats

Icing

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2-3 tablespoon milk
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the molasses and vanilla extract.

  6. Drop dough by rounded tablespoonfuls onto the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
