If you've been following me for a while you know I have a serious attachment to sugar cookies; buttercream sugar cookies and chocolate chip sugar cookies get made on the regular! Cinnamon cut-out sugar cookies are quickly becoming a new obsession.
The cookies are easy to make and have a nice soft texture while holding a sharp edge. The perfect sugar cookie, if you ask me! For this recipe we add cinnamon and a little nutmeg to the cookie dough and pair it with a spiced American Buttercream. The smell alone on these cookies is intoxicating.
Cinnamon cut-out sugar cookies are perfect for adding to your fall and winter baking lists. I know you are going to love them!
First you will whisk together the dry ingredients. All-purpose flour, aluminum-free baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg. I switched to using aluminum-free baking powder several years ago and highly recommend it for the best tasting baked goods. Rumford is a popular brand and both Trader Joes and Target carry versions as well. David Lebovitz wrote a fun article on why you should use aluminum-free baking powder.
Next you will beat together the butter and salt until combined, about 1 minute. Then add the granulated sugar and beat until smooth, about 1.5-2 minutes. Then beat in the egg and vanilla. Finally, with the mixer on low, add the sifted dry ingredients. The dough will start to ball around the mixer paddle when the dough is finished. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and press into a 1 inch disk. Chill the dough for a minimum of 30 minutes before rolling it out.
Make sure to roll your sugar cookie dough on the thicker side. I prefer about a ¼ inch thick. Keeping the cookie dough on the thick side allows for a softer baked cookie. I love using these fluted biscuit cutters.
Finally, you do not want to over bake these cookies. 7-8 minutes is all they need in a 375 degree Fahrenheit oven. The cookies will have just a hint of brown to the edges. They appear slightly puffy when they are done and then you'll let the cookies rest on the pan for 2 minutes before removing to a wire cooling rack.
Once the cookies are completely cool, you can decorate them with a spiced American buttercream.
You can use a hand-held mixer or a stand mixer to make the easy buttercream. Beat the room temperature butter on medium-high until smooth and creamy.
Then add powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice and ground cinnamon. Mix on low until incorporated. Then add vanilla and heavy whipping cream and beat on medium-high until light and fluffy about 2-3 minutes. Add a pinch of salt if the frosting is too sweet and add gel coloring, if desired.
The cookies in the photos were piped using a Wilton 104, Wilton 4 and Wilton 2D.
I am working to get some video tutorials to help you decorate your cookies. This is a whole new avenue for my tech challenged mind! Hopefully I can add a video or two soon. Is this something you would find helpful? Please drop me a note in the comments below to let me know.
