Ingredients
Scale
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for coating)
- 2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for coating)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy. Then, beat in the eggs and vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Chill the dough for 30 minutes.
- While the dough is chilling, prepare the coatings by mixing together the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in one bowl and placing the powdered sugar in another bowl.
- Scoop the chilled dough into 1-inch balls. Roll each ball first in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, then in the powdered sugar.
- Arrange the coated cookie dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and the tops are lightly crinkled.
- Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
To ensure your cookies have a soft, chewy texture, slightly underbake them. Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
