Cookies:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Combine cookie ingredients in a large bowl; mix until completely incorporated. (Dough will be thick.)
Using a medium sized cookie scoop or a heaping tablespoon, scoop cookies onto a parchment lined cookie sheet.
Bake for 7-8 minutes; remove from oven; let cool on the cookie sheet for 4-5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack. Repeat until all of the dough is baked.
Frosting:
Combine the first 3 frosting ingredients in a small saucepan over medium heat; whisk until mixture has melted; remove from heat; add powdered sugar; whisk until smooth. Pour frosting over cookies; use a knife to move excess frosting. Be sure that each cookie is completely covered.
Let frosting set on cookies before serving.
16 servings.
Keep cookies in an air-tight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
* Variation: Add chopped pecans to the tops of cookies while the frosting isn't completely set for added taste and texture.
