Ingredients
Sugar
1 cup (Granulated)
Butter
1 cup (Softened)
Egg
1 (Large)
All-purpose flour
2 1/4 cups (Sifted)
Cinnamon
3 teaspoons (Divided)
Sugar
2 tablespoons (For cinnamon-sugar mixture)
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease your cookie sheets or line them with parchment paper.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar and softened butter. Use an electric mixer or a whisk to beat the mixture until it becomes light and fluffy.
3
Add the egg to the mixture and blend thoroughly until well combined.
4
Gradually add the sifted all-purpose flour along with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Stir the mixture gently until everything is well combined, ensuring there are no dry flour pockets.
5
For easier handling, cover the dough with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour. This step is optional but recommended for a better texture.
6
In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar with 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, mixing well to create the cinnamon-sugar topping.
7
Once the dough is chilled, take it out and shape it into 1.5-inch balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
8
Place the coated dough balls on the prepared cookie sheets, leaving about 2 inches of space between each cookie. Use the bottom of a glass to flatten each ball to a thickness of approximately 1/4 inch.
9
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 11-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the cookies feel firm to the touch.
10
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the cookie sheets for a few moments before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
