Ingredients

For the Cookies

  • 1 cup Butter Room temperature is best
  • 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
  • 1/2 c up Granulated Sugar
  • 1 Egg
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 2 cup Flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
  • 1 teaspoon Cream of Tartar

For the Sugar Mixture

  • 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 2 Tablespoon Cinnamon

For the Icing

  • 1 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • 1 - 2 Tablespoon Milk

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350ºF. In a small bowl, mix granulated sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
    1/2 cup Granulated Sugar, 2 Tablespoon Cinnamon
  • In a large bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer, beat butter and sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy. It should take approx. 4 minutes. Next, beat in the egg and the vanilla.
    1 cup Butter, 1/2 cup Brown Sugar, 1/2 c up Granulated Sugar, 1 Egg, 1 teaspoon Vanilla
  • Mix in dry ingredients.
    1/4 teaspoon Salt, 2 cup Flour, 1 teaspoon Baking Soda, 1 teaspoon Cream of Tartar
  • Shape the dough into 1" balls and roll through the cinnamon sugar mixture. Place on baking sheets lined with parchment.
  • Bake for 9-12 minutes. The lighter in color the chewier the cookie.
  • While the cookies are cooling make the icing. Mix powdered sugar, vanilla and milk. Add milk until you get the desired consistency.
    1 cup Powdered Sugar, 1 teaspoon Vanilla, 1 - 2 Tablespoon Milk
  • Drizzle icing over cookies.

Notes

  • Cool cookies before icing. It's hard to wait, but if you add the icing too early it will melt into the cookie instead of sitting on top as a pretty drizzle.
  • The butter should be softened. Leave butter on the counter to soften. You can cut the butter into small squares and spread out on a plate to make softening quicker.
  • Bake until they are just brown and light in color. This will keep them good and chewy!
