Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar for rolling
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon for rolling

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon. Set aside.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, 1 cup of granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  4. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
  6. In a small bowl, mix together 1/4 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tablespoon of ground cinnamon for rolling.
  7. Scoop out tablespoon-sized portions of dough and roll them into balls. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated.
  8. Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  10. Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • For a chewier cookie, slightly underbake them and let them sit on the baking sheet longer.
  • You can also add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts or chocolate chips to the dough for added texture and flavor.
