INGREDIENTS

COOKIES Butter  Sugar Egg Vanilla Milk  Salt Baking Powder Oatmeal Flour FLOUR Butter Powdered Sugar Milk Vanilla Food Coloring

In a large mixing bowl, cream butter with sugar and egg. Add vanilla and milk. Slowly mix in salt, baking soda, oatmeal and flour until a dough forms.

Take a large chunk of dough and place on a floured surface. Roll out to about  1/2" thick.  Press cookie cutters into dough to create shapes. Using a thin spatula, lift the shapes and place onto an ungreased cookie sheet.

Bake at 350˚ for 7-8 minutes (they should not brown at all).  Remove  cookies from pan with thin spatula and move to a wire rack to cool. 

Cream together ingredients for frosting and put frosting into separate bowls.  Add food coloring to achieve desired colors. Frost the cookies.

Before frosting hardens, decorate cookies with mini chocolate chips, sprinkles, candy cane crunch or anything else that looks and tastes lovely!
