Things You'll Need:
- 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/3 tsp baking powder
- 1 1/2 tsps cinnamon
- 1 egg
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp heavy cream
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 1/4 pound unsalted butter (1 stick)
- 1 1/2 tsps vanilla extract
- Groceries
- Cooling Racks
- Cookie sheets
- Measuring cups
- Measuring Spoons
- Hand Mixers
- Mixing bowls
-
Step 1
Mix half the cinnamon with 1/4 cup of the sugar and set aside.
-
Step 2
Beat the butter until creamy, then add the remaining sugar, beating well, about one minute.
-
Step 3
Add the egg, vanilla and cream and beat together thoroughly.
-
Step 4
Stir in remaining cinnamon.
-
Step 5
Stir together the flour, salt and baking powder and add to the butter mixture. Stir together well, then chill for 30 minutes.
-
Step 6
Heat the oven to 350 degrees.
-
Step 7
Roll the dough into balls and place on cookie sheets about two inches apart.
-
Step 8
Generously butter the flat bottom of a glass or other flat utensil, like a measuring cup or small pan. Dip it into the cinnamon sugar and flatten the cookie balls a little, about halfway, so some of the cinnamon sugar sticks to the top of the cookie. Don't smush them too flat because they'll spread as they cook.
-
Step 9
Bake for about 8 minutes, or until the edges just start to turn golden.
