Equipment

  • mixing bowl
  • Baking sheet
  • Parchment Paper
  • Whisk
  • tablespoon

Ingredients

For the Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1 cup brown sugar packed
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup cinnamon baking chips

For the Frosting

  • 2 cups powdered sugar sifted
  • 2 tablespoons milk adjust as needed
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper.
  • In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened unsalted butter, packed brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy for about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the large egg and a splash of vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, cornstarch, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt until fully incorporated.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined to keep the cookies tender.
  • Fold in the cinnamon baking chips evenly throughout the dough.
  • Using a tablespoon, drop portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and centers are set but soft.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.
  • In a bowl, combine powdered sugar, a splash of milk, and vanilla extract for the frosting until smooth; adjust milk as needed.
  • Once cooled, generously spread frosting over each cookie, allowing it to shape beautifully.

Notes
