These Cinnamon Sugar Cookies are soft, chewy, and coated in a deliciously sweet and spiced cinnamon-sugar crust. The dough is easy to make with simple pantry ingredients, then chilled for the perfect texture. Each bite delivers a cozy blend of sweetness and warmth, making them an irresistible treat!
Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add the egg and beat until fully incorporated.
¾ cup Unsalted butter, ½ cup White granulated sugar, ½ cup Brown sugar, 1 large Egg
Dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until a soft dough forms.
Chill the Dough: Cover the dough with plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to firm it up.
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Shape and Roll: Combine the cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl for coating. Using your hands, shape the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture until fully coated.
¼ cup White granulated sugar, 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
Bake the Cookies: Place the coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are lightly golden but the centers are still soft.
Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
