Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (cold)
• 2 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 large Egg yolk
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a food processor, add the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, ground cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Pulse several times until the dry ingredients are combined.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add them to the food processor. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract to the food processor. Pulse again until the dough starts to come together. If the dough feels too crumbly, add 1-2 teaspoons of cold water and pulse again until it holds together when pinched.

Step 5

Remove the dough from the processor, form it into a disc, and wrap it in plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator to chill for 15 minutes.

Step 6

Once chilled, roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use cookie cutters to cut out your desired shapes.

Step 7

Transfer the cookies to the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 1 inch of space between each cookie.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Avoid overbaking to keep the cookies tender.

Step 9

Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 10

Serve the cookies as is, or dust with an extra sprinkle of cinnamon sugar for added flavor and presentation!
