These cookies are a cross between a sugar cookie and shortbread, are not very sweet, and very cinnamon-y. They were wonderful with hot chocolate after swimming in cold water all afternoon.
1/4 pound butter, softened
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Preheat oven to 375F. Cream butter and 1/2 cup brown sugar until light. Add the egg and mix until blended. Gradually mix in the flour and baking powder until a soft dough is formed. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into pencil-width ropes about 5 inches lomg. Combine cinnamon and sugar in a small bowl. Roll dough strips in the sugar mixture. Form an S shape and place each cookie on a parchment-lined cookie sheet, spacing cookies two inches apart. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until edges begin to brown.
