Cookies

  • 1 cup unsalted butter softened but still cool to the touch

  • 2 ¾ cups all purpose flour SEE NOTE

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat oven to 350°F with racks near the center. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
  • Mix together all filling ingredients until well combined. Place in the freezer for about 10 minutes while you prepare the cookie dough.

Cookie Dough

  • Beat butter and sugar until light and creamy. Add vanilla, egg, and egg yolk, and beat until combined.
  • In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat until combined.
  • Layer the dough in the mixing bowl with cinnamon filling mixture in between each layer.
  • Scoop dough into two-tablespoon portions using a cookie scoop. Freeze for 10 minutes.
  • Place dough balls on parchment-lined baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes until edges are browned and centers are slightly underdone.
  • Allow cookies to cool completely on wire racks.

Notes

For properly measuring flour: fluff the flour before scooping. To shape cookies: use a round glass or the back of a spoon immediately after baking for perfect shapes.
