Cinnamon cookies are sweetened with sugar and warmed with cinnamon. Consider rolling the cookies in cinnamon sugar, adding cinnamon chips to the dough, or creating a cinnamon glaze to replicate the flavours of a cinnamon roll. Cinnamon cookies, often known as cinnamon sugar cookies, are cinnamon-flavoured flour-based snacks. Begin by making a batch of sugar cookies, cream cheese cookies, or butter cookies. To make cinnamon cookies, add cinnamon to the dough or roll the dough balls in a cinnamon-sugar mixture. Cinnamon cookies, like chocolate chip cookies, can be soft and chewy or thin and crispy, depending on the ingredients in the cookie dough, such as sugar and leavening agents. Cinnamon's astringent and warming effect balances the sweetness in the cookie without increasing the baking time.
