Coffee Cookie

In my previous post I mentioned that I was going to experiment with cinnamon cookies. Well I did and they were FAB!!! Since Saturday I made two batches of them and they are gone. Saturday night I made the first batch and I ate four cookies and so did my husband. Because I was going to take them to my in-laws for Sunday lunch, I had to make more because I could not go with half a plate. So Sunday morning I made another batch. I have totally renamed these cookies CINNAMON CRINKLES. They cracked on the top like gingersnaps but reminded me of snickerdoodles. They were a big hit, two batches were made and two batches are gone! These cookies also go great with a cup of coffee or a tall glass of milk.

Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups white sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 tablespoons molasses
2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/8 teaspoons baking soda
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F
Cream together butter and sugar.
Mix in egg and molasses, blending well.
Mix flour, baking soda and cinnamon; add to creamed mixture, mixing well.
Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheet.
Bake for 10 to 12 minutes. Do 9 minutes if you want soft cookies

Cinnamon Cookie

HAPPY FRIDAY EVERYONE! I just love Friday, it is such a accomplishment. Think about it you got out of bed every morning, got dressed, got your kid(s) dressed, fed, and out the door with or without a hitch. Sometimes I just think, wow we women are amazing. The things you do to keep your home running like a fine machine. Now I must say I have a husband that helps me a lot, so thank you husband. But seriously ladies, be proud of yourselves, you do a lot and you give a lot! So before the weekend comes I would like to post a recipe that I plan on trying. On Sunday, we go to my in-laws after church for lunch, so I will be making cinnamon cookies for dessert. I really like making desserts to take somewhere because that means I won't eat all of it myself. So have a great weekend and I'll tell you how the cookies turned out next week!
