Delicious Cinnamon Cookies Recipe for Every Occasion

Ingredients

Servings:
24
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened (Can substitute with margarine)
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (Adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

7 steps

  1. Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

    Ensure the oven is fully preheated for even baking.
  2. Mix the Wet Ingredients

    In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract.

    Use room temperature butter for easier mixing.
  3. Combine Dry Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.

    Sifting the flour can help prevent lumps.
  4. Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the dry mixture to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

    Do not overmix to keep the cookies tender.
  5. Shape the Cookies

    Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto ungreased baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

    For uniform cookies, use a cookie scoop.
  6. Bake

    Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden.

    Keep an eye on them to avoid overbaking.
  7. Cool

    Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks.

    Cooling on a wire rack helps maintain crispness.
