20+ Christmas Cookie Recipe With Cinnamon Dive Into Deliciousness!

Ingredients:

Dry Ingredients:

• 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ½ teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients:

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• ½ cup brown sugar
• 1 large egg
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions:

1. In a medium-sized bowl, mix together the dry ingredients - flour, baking powder, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt. Set aside.
2. In a separate bowl, cream the softened butter with the sugars until light and fluffy.
3. Add in the egg and vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
4. Gradually add in the dry ingredient mixture until a soft dough forms.
5. Divide the dough into two parts and place each part between two sheets of parchment paper. Roll out the dough to about ¼ inch thickness.
6. Refrigerate the dough for at least 30 minutes. This will help the cookies hold their shape while baking.
7. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
8. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and use your favorite cookie cutters to cut out different shapes.
9. Place the cut-out cookies on a lined baking sheet, leaving some space in between each cookie.
10. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
11. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Additional Tips:

• If you want an extra burst of flavor, you can add ½ teaspoon of nutmeg to the dry ingredient mixture.
• For a more festive touch, you can decorate the cookies with colored sugar crystals or holiday-themed sprinkles.
• These cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week, making them perfect for gifting or enjoying throughout the holiday season.
