110 g brown sugar, packed tight
04 -
200 g white sugar
05 -
227 g unsalted butter, let it get soft

# Steps:
01 -
Let the cookies sit on the tray for five minutes. Then move them over to a rack and wait until they aren’t warm anymore.
02 -
Set the cookie-coated balls on the lined trays. Keep a good 5 cm between each one. Pop them in the oven for 10-12 minutes till you spot golden edges and see soft middles.
03 -
Scoop out 3.5 cm balls from the dough. Roll them around in your cinnamon sugar mix till totally covered.
04 -
Chuck the cinnamon and sugar for topping into a small bowl and give them a quick mix.
05 -
Bit by bit, add your dry stuff to the wet bowl. Stir until it’s just together. Don’t go wild mixing.
06 -
Mix in one egg, then the next, giving each a good blend. Drizzle in vanilla and stir so it disappears.
07 -
Toss soft butter, brown sugar, and white sugar in a big bowl. Grab your electric mixer and whip it all up nice and fluffy.
08 -
Move flour, cinnamon, baking soda, and salt into a medium-sized bowl. Use a whisk or fork to mix till you can’t see streaks.
09 -
Crank your oven to 175°C. Set parchment on your baking trays so nothing sticks.
# Notes:
01 -
Take the cookies out before they seem totally done. They’ll keep cooking as they chill.
02 -
A cookie scoop makes life easier and keeps your cookies all the same size so they bake together.
