Chewy Cinnamon Cookies
By David J. Stewart
This is a delicious recipe that my kids love, but it takes about 3 hours to make. To me, I enjoy cooking long meals. Society today has become so hectic, with everyone tossing a TV-dinner into the microwave. There's no love in that! I enjoy cooking, the longer the better.
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Directions
In a mixer bowl, cream together sugar and butter; beat in egg and vanilla. Combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Add to butter mixture. Blend well. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or till firm enough to roll into balls. Shape dough into small balls about 3/4-inch in diameter. Roll in cinnamon sugar to coat. Set cookies 1-inch apart on lightly greased cookie sheets. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes or till the edges are lightly browned. Cool slightly on pans, then remove to racks to cool completely.
