Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Sugar-Cinnamon Coating:
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
Instructions
Preheat the Oven:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Prepare the Dry Ingredients:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
Make the Dough:
In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until fluffy.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Shape the Cookies:
Use a cookie scoop to portion out dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving space between each cookie.
Bake the Cookies:
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are set.
Coat in Sugar-Cinnamon:
While the cookies are still warm, toss them in the sugar-cinnamon mixture until fully coated.
Notes
Be sure to allow the cookies to cool slightly before tossing them in the sugar-cinnamon mixture to ensure they coat evenly.
These cookies are best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
