Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter
- 1.5 cups brown sugar, packed
- 0.25 cup granulated sugar
- 2 pieces large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar using a hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture is light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Then mix in the vanilla extract.
Step 4
In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using) until well combined.
Step 5
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just incorporated. Avoid overmixing.
Step 6
Using a tablespoon or small cookie scoop, drop rounded spoonfuls of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, or until the cookies are golden around the edges but still soft in the center.
Step 8
Remove the cookies from the oven and allow them to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Serve and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
