Ingredients
- 1/2 cup butter (1 stick) softened
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the butter and cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until combined.
- Add the egg, baking powder, and vanilla extract and mix just until combined.
- Mix in the flour, just until incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to chill the dough for 1 hour.
- Heat the oven to 375ºF. Line cookie sheets with parchment paper.
- Scoop the cookie dough into 1-inch dough balls and roll between your hands to create smooth dough balls. In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and cinnamon. Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, then place on the prepared cookie sheets with at least 1-inch of space between each.
- Bake at 375ºF for 7-8 minutes, just until set. Do not over-bake.
- Remove the cookies from the cookie sheet and cool on a wire cooling rack.
