Instructions
Make the cookie dough

- Cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until light and creamy. Add in the egg, vanilla extract, and mix until smooth.
- Gently mix in the flour, corn starch, cream of tartar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, & salt until the flour mixture disappears.
- Scoop out equally sized cookie dough balls and top them with the cinnamon-sugar mixture, place on the baking sheet, and gently flatten to about 1 inch in thickness. (Read make the cinnamon-sugar mixture below to see how to make it)
- Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 minutes then let the cookies sit on the baking sheet until fully cool.
Make the cinnamon sugar mixture
- Mix the 3 tablespoons of granulated sugar with the ½ teaspoon of cinnamon in a shallow bowl.
- Roll the cookie dough balls in this cinnamon sugar before baking. (save the rest of the cinnamon sugar for later)
Make the cream cheese frosting
- Cream the butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla together until smooth and creamy. If the frosting is too thin to pipe, add the extra ½ cup powdered sugar and mix again.
- Fill a piping bag or a ziplock bag with the cream cheese frosting and pipe the frosting all around to create a beautiful swirl design, sprinkle with the leftover cinnamon sugar, and enjoy.
Notes
Doubling or tripling the recipe
-
When using the “2x” or “3x” button in the recipe card, the flour and powdered sugar measurements may display in a slightly confusing format (e.g., “2 & 1 cup” instead of “3 cups”). Here’s the correct breakdown:
- 2x flour = 3 cups
- 3x flour = 4 ½ cups
- 2x powdered sugar = 2–3 cups (depending on frosting thickness preference)
- 3x powdered sugar = 3–4 ½ cups
- For minis, use about 3 tablespoon of dough per cookie and reduce bake time to 7–8 minutes.
