Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and lightly spray a cookie sheet with cooking spray. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat together the butter, brown sugar and powdered sugar until well combined.
- Add in the vanilla and beat the mixture at high speed for 5 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed. You want the butter VERY fluffy.
- In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, cornstarch and cinnamon. Add it into the butter mixture a little at a time until full mixed in. Beat at high speed for an additional 5 minutes. The texture should be that of frosting.
- Transfer the dough into a pastry bag and press out balls about 2 Tbsp tall, only flattening slightly. You want the dough to remain in a ball shape and be taller than it is wide.
- Bake until just golden brown, about 12-13 minutes. Let cool on the pan 10 minutes and then (VERY GENTLY) transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.
- Once the cookies are cooled completely, whisk together the glaze ingredients and spread onto the middle of the cookies.
- Let the cookies sit for 1-2 hours until the glaze hardens. DEVOUR
