Ingredients

For the cookies:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)

  • 1 cup granulated sugar

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar (packed)

  • 2 large eggs

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For the cinnamon-sugar coating:

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

For the cream cheese drizzle (optional):

  • 1/4 cup cream cheese (softened)

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tablespoon milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Prepare the dough:

    • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

    • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside.

    • In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.

    • Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

    • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.

  • Roll the dough into balls:

    • In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon for the coating.

    • Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of cookie dough and roll them into balls.

    • Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, coating them evenly. Place the coated dough balls onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

  • Bake the cookies:

    • Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 9-11 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly soft.

    • Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

  • Make the cream cheese drizzle (optional):

    • In a small bowl, whisk together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

    • Drizzle the cream cheese glaze over the cooled cookies for an extra indulgent touch.

  • Serve:

    • Serve the cookies warm or at room temperature. Enjoy the perfect balance of cinnamon and sugar with every bite!
