Ingredients

Scale

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon in a bowl.
In another bowl, cream softened butter with granulated and brown sugars until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
Add egg and vanilla; mix until combined. Gradually stir in dry ingredients until just combined.
Scoop tablespoon-sized portions onto lined baking sheets, spacing them apart. Sprinkle with extra cinnamon sugar.
Bake for about 10 minutes or until edges are golden but centers remain soft. Cool on sheets for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
Optional: Drizzle cooled cookies with an easy glaze made from powdered sugar and milk.
