Cookie Monster
Cinnamon Sugar Cookies

Cookie Dough
2 cups
sugar
2 sticks
butter
2
large eggs
2 tsp
vanilla
3 cups
flour
1 tbl
cinnamon
2 tsp
baking powder
½ tsp
salt
4 tbl
demerara sugar



These cookies are so simple and they taste amazing.

In a mixing bowl, mix the sugar and butter together then add the eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.  Combine the flour, cinnamon, baking powder and salt, add to the butter mixture, and blend well.  Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours or until the dough is firm enough to roll into balls.   Shape the dough into small balls about 1½" in diameter.  Roll the balls in the demerara sugar to coat.  Set the cookies two inches apart on a lightly greased cookie sheet.  Don't press the cookies down, they will flatten while they cook.  Bake at 375° for 14 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned.  Let the cookies cool slightly on the baking sheet, then remove to racks to cool completely.
