Instructions:

1. In your bowl for the kitchen aid mixer, mix together the 2 sticks of butter and the 1 ¼ cup of sugar until light and fluffy.
2. Next, add in the egg and the 1 ½ tsp of vanilla and mix until combined.
3. In a separate bowl combine your dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, and salt, mix until combined.
4. Slowly start adding the dry mixture into the butter mixture, mixing well between each addition.
5. The dough should not be sticky and should not be crumbly. If it’s sticky, mix in flour one tablespoon at a time until it is not sticky anymore.
6. Mix cinnamon and sugar together and put on a bowl.
7. Measure dough with a ¼ cup measure and roll into balls. Roll each ball to coat well in the cinnamon sugar mixture and place on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or wax paper.
8. Bake at 350 degrees F for 12-15 minutes or until the center is just set.
9. Let it cool for 2 minutes then cool on a wire rack.
10. Makes about 12 large cookies.
