Great Granddad's Oatmeal Cookies

I called grandma awhile ago for this recipe and the first time I tried to reinvent this childhood favorite, I was not happy with the results. I got out the recipe again tonight and made another attempt with a few modifications - tonight they are perfect.

Cookies
2 cups white sugar
5 cups oatmeal
2 cups flour
1 cup buttermilk
1 1/2 cups butter
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
cream butter and sugar, add milk and then all remaining ingredients. drop onto parchment lined cookie sheet and flatten slightly with the back of a spoon. bake 350 degrees for 12 minutes.

Brown Butter Icing
1/2 cup butter
3 cups icing sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
water
heat the butter in saucepan over med heat until golden brown, stirring occasionally. remove from heat, stir in sugar and vanilla. stir in enough water to achieve desired consistency to drizzle.
drizzle or spread icing on warm cookies.
