Mike wanted oatmeal cookies... I wanted cake and something with icing. So, we made a compromise and came up with these soft, cakey, cream cheese-filled wonders of excitement.
Enjoy.
Preheat oven to 350.
1. Mix the dry stuff together:
- 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
-1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/4 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
2. Mix the wet stuff together: First beat sugar and butter, then add the rest.
- 1 cup butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar and 1/2 cup granulated
- 2 eggs- add one at a time
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 1 tbsp molasses
3. Let dry meet wet, then add in 1 1/2 cups old fashioned rolled oats.
4. Drop batter in 2 tbsp sized clumps, bake for 12 minutes. Let cool...then when they are ready to ice, go to town!
5. For the icing: I used half a package of full fat cream cheese, 4 tablespoons icing sugar and about 1/4 tsp almond extract (A MUST!). Mix all together and ice one cookie and top with another, like a sandwich. You could double the icing recipe to be able to fill all the cookies, but I wanted some with icing and some without.
Moolicious!
