  • 1 cup DARK brown sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 300°F and lightly grease baking sheets.
    In a large bowl, cream together butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth.
    Add eggs and vanilla extract and mix until combined.
    In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt.
    Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix until a soft dough forms.
    In a small bowl, combine cinnamon and sugar for the coating.
    Using a cookie scoop, scoop dough and roll into balls.
    Roll each dough ball in the cinnamon sugar mixture.
    Place cookies on prepared baking sheets, spacing evenly.
    Bake for 18–20 minutes, until set but still soft.
    Allow cookies to cool on the baking sheet before transferring.

Notes

  • Cookies will continue to set as they cool
    Baking at a lower temperature helps keep the cookies soft
    Store in an airtight container at room temperature
