Cinnamon Sugar Cookies

Just like Mrs. Fields Cinnamon Sugar cookies - one of my favourites!


½ cup of  butter
¼ cup of granulated sugar
½ cup of brown sugar
1 egg
1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
1 ½ cup of flour
¼ teaspoon of  baking soda
pinch of salt

2 tablespoon of granulated sugar
½ teaspoon of  cinnamon


Preheat oven to 300°F

Soften butter in the microwave, and then mix in both the granulated sugar and the brown sugar.
Add in egg and vanilla, and mix until fluffy and light in colour.
Using an electric mixer is recommended.

Mix in flour, baking soda and salt.

The dough will be a little light and fluffy, but you should still be able to roll into a ball.

Roll tablespoon amounts of dough into a ball, and roll into the coating.

For a different taste, make the same cooking dough, but do not roll in the cinnamon sugar coating. Mix in a teaspoon of almond extract and top with some almond flakes.

Bake for 10-15 minutes.
Do not over bake!

Cool on a cooling rack.
Makes 20 cookies (at 1 tablespoon size cookie)

  1. Do you suggest packing the brown sugar or not?

    1. I would suggest lightly packed, somewhere in-between is best!
      They are amazing - enjoy!

    2. Thank you so much! I can't wait to try them!
