CINNAMON COOKIES
These are one of the best cookies I have ever eaten. They make up easily, and they disappear fast. I make these every year when we put up our Christmas Tree. I serve them with hot Cocoa while we decorate our tree. I swear the cookies are anticipated as much as the tree!

CINNAMON COOKIES
I'm not sure where I got this recipe, but these cookies get rave reviews (and recipe requests) when ever I make them. You can make them as directed, but they are also good if you add nuts or chocolate chips or what ever you like in your cookies. I've made them with chocolate chips or just hazelnuts and both were delicious. My children love them, as well. They make the house smell wonderful when ever I bake them!

Steps:
- Beat the butter, muscovado sugar, caster sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon together with an electric whisk for 2-3 mins until well-combined. Add the egg, flour, baking powder and raisins, if using, and continue to beat until the mixture becomes a uniform dough. Roll tablespoons of the dough into balls between the palms your hands (you should have 12-15). Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hrs until firm, or overnight. The unbaked dough balls will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months (see tip, below).
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4 and line two large baking trays with baking parchment. Place the dough balls 3-4cm apart on the prepared baking trays to allow the mixture to spread without touching. Bake for 10-12 mins until lightly golden at the edges but still soft and gooey in the centre. Leave to cool completely on the baking trays.
- Mix the icing sugar with the remaining cinnamon, then dust over the cookies. Will keep in an airtight container for up to five days.

Tips:
- Soften the butter: Softened butter is easier to mix and will result in a more tender cookie. If you're short on time, you can microwave the butter on high for a few seconds, but be careful not to melt it completely.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much.
- Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop will help you get evenly sized cookies. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon, but be sure to level it off.
- Bake the cookies at the right temperature: The temperature of your oven will affect the way the cookies bake. Be sure to preheat your oven to the correct temperature before baking the cookies.
- Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaked cookies will be dry and crumbly. Bake the cookies just until they are set and the edges are just starting to brown.
Conclusion:
Cinnamon cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. By following these tips, you can make perfect cinnamon cookies every time. Whether you're a beginner baker or a seasoned pro, these cookies are sure to be a hit. So what are you waiting for? Get baking!
