Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 2 tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup powdered sugar (for glaze)
- 2 tbsp milk (for glaze)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in vanilla extract.
- Gradually combine the dry ingredients with your wet mixture until just blended. Avoid overmixing to keep cookies soft.
- Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto prepared sheets, spacing them about two inches apart. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
- Cool on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks. For the glaze, whisk together powdered sugar and milk until smooth; drizzle over cooled cookies.
