FAQs
Q: Can I use rolled oats instead of old-fashioned oats?
A: Yes, but the texture might be a bit different. Old-fashioned oats keep the cookies chewy.
Q: Can I skip the glaze?
A: Absolutely! The cookies are delicious even without the glaze, especially if you prefer a more classic oatmeal cookie.
Q: How do I know when the cookies are done?
A: The edges should be golden brown, and the centers may look slightly underbaked. They will firm up as they cool.
