Cinnamon Tea Cookies

Ingredients

To create these delightful cookies, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup chopped nuts (optional)

Instructions

Follow these simple steps to bake your own batch of Cinnamon Tea Cookies:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  3. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, stir in the vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, ground cinnamon, baking soda, and salt.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until combined. If you’re using nuts, fold them in at this stage.
  6. Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each cookie.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown. The centers may appear slightly underbaked—this is perfect!
  8. Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy your freshly baked Cinnamon Tea Cookies with a hot cup of tea or coffee. They’re not just cookies; they’re a warm hug in every bite! Perfect for sharing with friends or savoring all by yourself.
