    List of Ingredients




    Cinnamon Circles for mom


    1 c Butter softened
    2/3 c Powdered sugar
    1 ts Vanilla extract
    2 c All purpose flour unsifted
    2 ts Ground cinnamon
    1/4 ts Baking powder
    1/4 ts Salt
    1 c Chocolate chips

    Recipe





    In a large mixing bowl beat butter until smooth; gradually add sugar; beat until light and
    fluffy. Beat in vanilla.

    In a medium bowl combine flour, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Add to butter mixture, beating until just combined; cover bowl. Chill dough until firm but not hard, about 30 minutes.

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

    Shape dough into 3/4 inch balls using 1 tablespoon dough for each.

    Place on ungreased cookie sheets 2 1/2 inches apart. Using the bottom of a floured glass, press each ball into a 2" circle.

    Bake until just golden around the edge, about 6 minutes. Do not over bake. Remove from baking sheets to a wire rack; cool completely.

    In a small saucepan over very low heat melt chocolate chips, stirring constantly. Frost half of each cookie using a small spatula. Place on a rack to set. Refrigerate in a tightly covered container.
