Instructions
Baking Cinnamon Brown Sugar Cookies is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) so it’s ready when your cookies are shaped.
2. Prep the Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cookie removal.
3. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Whisk them together to ensure even distribution.
4. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
5. Add the Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully integrated.
6. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures: Gradually add the dry flour mix to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies tender.
7. Shape the Cookies: Scoop tablespoons of dough and roll them into balls. Then, roll each ball in granulated sugar for added sweetness.
8. Place on Baking Sheet: Space the cookie balls about 2 inches apart on your prepared baking sheet.
9. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges begin to turn golden brown.
10. Cool the Cookies: Remove them from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
