Cinnamon Graham Cookies



I decided I wanted to make cookies today and as soon as I made that decision I ran across this recipe and decided to give them a try. YUM! I highly recommend these if you want to try something a little different. John loved them and I am excited to send them to work with him tomorrow.

Ingredients
-2 cups graham cracker crumbs
-1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour (I used 1 1/2 cups plus 3 Tablespoons cake flour)
-1 teaspoon ground cinnamon (I used 2 teaspoons)
-1 teaspoon baking soda
-1 teaspoon salt
-1 cup butter
-1/4 cup white sugar
-1 1/4 cups packed brown sugar
-2 large eggs
-1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Combine first five ingredients and set aside.
3. Cream butter, sugar, and brown sugar. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each. Add vanilla and mix well.
4. Add dry ingredients to butter mixture and stir until combined. Drop dough two inches apart by rounded spoonful (I used a 1 1/2 teaspoon measuring spoon) on an ungreased cookie sheet. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until edges are brown.

  5. Hi Katherine!

    The cookies taste like a cinnamon graham cracker only with the consistency of a soft cookie. They are very soft and fluffy and tend to have a taste that reminds me of cinnamon teddy grahams!
