Directions:
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. If you plan to freeze unbaked cookies, then cut paper into 16 squares (about 3x3 - inches each).
In a medium mixing bowl, stir together oat flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In a small bowl, stir together peanut butter, ½ cup yogurt and vanilla; mix into flour mixture. Sprinkle chocolate chips over dough and fold in. Form dough into 16 balls, then flatten with a spatula until about 1/2-inch thick.
IF FREEZING: Place one cookie on each 3-inch piece parchment paper. Place cookies in stacks of 8 and place stacks in 2 zip-top freezer bags and freeze. When ready to bake, place on baking sheet. Bake in 350-degree oven for 15-18 minutes until tops appear dry.
IF NOT FREEZING: Place cookies on parchment paper. Bake in 350-degree oven for 11-13 minutes until tops appear dry. Remove from oven and let cookies sit on baking sheet for 10 minutes before transferring to wire cooling rack to fully cool.
TO MAKE FROSTING: Meanwhile, whisk together remaining ½ cup of yogurt and cream cheese (or mascarpone) and cinnamon. (Add a splash of California milk if needed to thin.) Drizzle over cooled cookies.
