These cinnamon cookies are given a hint of citrus with the addition of lemon zest. Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter |
1 cup white sugar |
1 egg |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon |
Directions:
1. Beat butter and 1 cup sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until smooth. Beat egg and vanilla extract into the butter until completely blended. Add flour, cinnamon, baking powder, lemon zest, and salt; continue mixing until flour is just incorporated. Cover bowl with plastic wrap; refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). 3. Stir 1/2 cup sugar and cinnamon together in a bowl; spread onto a flat surface. 4. Divide dough into about 60 small balls. Roll balls in cinnamon-sugar mixture to coat. Arrange onto baking sheets. 5. Bake in preheated oven until edges are lightly browned, about 10 minutes. |
