  • 1 cup butter room temperature
  • ¾ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup light brown sugar

  • 1 Tbsp vanilla

Instructions
 

  • Heat oven to 325 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Mix cinnamon sugar mixture in a bowl and set aside.
  • In a stand mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat both sugars and butter until fluffy and creamy (3 minutes).  Beat in eggs and vanilla, mixing for about another minute.

  • Roll dough into balls and then dip into the cinnamon sugar mixture, coating evenly. Place in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  • Place on prepared baking sheet, 2 inches apart and then bake for about 10 minutes or until edges are golden brown.
  • Enjoy...with a scoop of vanilla ice cream! ;)
