Cinnamon Cookies

These are one of the best cookies I have ever eaten. They make up easily, and they disappear fast. I make these every year when we put up our Christmas Tree. I serve them with hot Cocoa while we decorate our tree. I swear the cookies are anticipated as much as the tree!

Great little cookies! And easily made with ingredients I always have in the cabinet. These will definitely be in my "its 1am and I want something sweet that I don't have to buy things for" rotation.

    We were looking for something to make for dessert with the ingredients we had on hand while snowed-in this weekend, and this recipe fit the bill. Turned out great. Made the cookies a little bigger and so had to bake for 15 minutes. Also added some ground ginger (same amount as the cinnamon) and had to substitute maple syrup for vanilla, because we had none. Quite delicious and soft.

    I used egg beaters and reduced-fat margarine. It still turned out great. Because of the lower-fat, higher-water content, the cookies puffed - so we had Cinnamon PUFFS! Yum! I rolled them in cinnamon sugar and the whole downstairs smelled wonderful while these gems were baking. They tasted good out of the oven and after a few days too! They reminded me of Dunkin' Donuts' donut holes - except not as greasy, sticky, caloric, or fattening. EVEN BETTER! THe way I made it, the calories: 24; fat grams: .86

    I doubled the recipe as others did and was glad I did. After the first batch came out of the oven, my son grabbed one, went to his room then came back out and asked if that's all there was. I told him I had more to make...he said "Good, I'll take this row" and grabbed a whole row off of the cooling rack. Excellent cookies. I decreased the cooking time by 1 minute because we like a chewier cookie. Thanks for the recipe!
