Servings: 28 cookies
Cost: $8
Ingredients
- 3 cups (372g) all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¾ cup (170g) unsalted butter softened
- 1 ¼ cups (250g) granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup Apple Butter
- ½ tsp cinnamon
For the topping:
- ⅓ cup (67g) granualted sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
Instructions
- Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Set aside.
- Cream butter and 1 ¼ cups sugar in a mixer until fluffy. Mix in eggs, vanilla, ½ teaspoon cinnamon, and apple butter.
- Beat just until mixed. Add in flour mixture and mix until just blended together. Chill your dough at least 2 hours.
- This dough MUST be cold before baking. Because of all the butter and apple butter, the cookies will spread quite a bit if you skip the chilling!
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cookie sheets with parchment or a silpat baking mat.
- Place 1 teaspoon cinnamon and ⅓ cup sugar in a small bowl.
- Scoop balls of cookie dough (mine were done using a 1 or 2 tablespoon cookie scoop) and roll them in the cinnamon sugar.
- Place on your cookie sheet. I recommend only scooping 2 cookie sheets at a time, then re-chill the dough for while those two trays bake.
- Bake cookies for 11-15 minutes or until they're no longer glossy and light golden around the edges. Cool at least 10 minutes before removing from cookie sheets.
