Martha Monday–Iced Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies

oatmealapple2

Happy Monday everyone!  I was a little slow on the Martha Monday baking but I got it done.  I chose a cookie I wasn’t sure about but in the end…love it!

Iced Oatmeal Applesauce Cookies on page 77!

If you like oatmeal cookies, you’ll really like these!

Easy/Hard:  Easy, you don’t even have to wait for the butter to soften!

Ingredient availability: I’ve never seen chunky applesauce before unless I made it.  I just used a couple of the kids applesauce cups, naturally sweetened. 

What I like about this cookie:   This is another soft and chewy cookie.  They stand great on their own but are taken to another level with the icing! 

Baking experience: Today was a day off for the girls from school.  They didn’t help, they just ran around me asking when they would be done.  So my experience was loud :)  Not much difficult about the cookie baking, pretty standard stuff!

Taste:   I left out the raisin’s because me no like.  I mean they gross me out, it’s like eating bugs and having bitten (by accident) into a bumble bee, I know from where I speak!  So I’m sure the taste would be different, but without them, they are really really yummy.  Also, there’s maple syrup in the icing.  As a kid from the great white north, I love anything maple!

  2. O.K. you have to explain how you accidentally bite into a bumblebee!!?? Love the look of these cookies (I love a chewy cookie) and the combination of the applesauce and oatmeal are just too hard for me to resist.

    1. At the CNE, I was 10ish, eating cotton candy and wasn't paying attention. I bit down and it was grittier than it should have been :)
