CINNAMON SUGAR COOKIES



Cinnamon Sugar Cookies image

Stash the dough for these cookie-cutter favorites in the freezer, then bake them off and sparkle them up for everyone on your gift list.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

Time 2h45m

Yield Makes 32

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled), plus more for rolling
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Decorating sugar and candies, such as nonpareils and red cinnamon dots (optional)
Confectioners sugar, for decorating (optional)

Steps:

  • Make the dough: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Set aside. In another large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and vanilla. With mixer on low speed, gradually add flour mixture; beat until combined. Divide dough in half; form into two 3/4-inch-thick disks. Wrap each in plastic; refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour.
  • Roll out and freeze: Place one disk between two sheets of floured parchment paper; roll out to an 1/8-inch thickness, lightly dusting dough with flour as needed. Cut out shapes with cookie cutters; if dough gets soft, chill 10 minutes. (To bake right away, follow directions in step 3.) Using a metal spatula with a thin blade, transfer cut-out shapes to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Re-roll scraps; cut more shapes. Repeat with remaining disk. Place baking sheet in freezer; once frozen, transfer shapes to a resealable plastic bag. Freeze up to 1 month.
  • Bake: Preheat oven to 325. Line baking sheets with parchment; bake, decorating if desired (see note, below), until edges are golden, 10 to 15 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through-this time range applies whether dough is frozen or not. Cool cookies 1 minute on sheets, and transfer to wire racks to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Use unsalted butter: This will help you control the amount of salt in your cookies. If you only have salted butter, omit the additional salt called for in the recipe.
  • Chill the dough: This will help the cookies hold their shape and prevent them from spreading too much. If you don't have time to chill the dough, you can still bake them, but they may not be as crisp.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a cookie scoop: This will help you get evenly sized cookies. If you don't have a cookie scoop, you can use a tablespoon to measure out the dough.
  • Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: This will ensure that the cookies are cooked through but still soft and chewy.

Conclusion:

These cinnamon sugar spice cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. They are soft, chewy, and full of flavor. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a batch of these cookies that will disappear quickly. So next time you are looking for a sweet treat, give these cinnamon sugar spice cookies a try. You won't be disappointed!
