Twisted Cookies Recipe
🕒 Total Time: 25 minutes
🥄 Servings: 60 cookies
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 3/4 cup canola oil
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
Instructions:
-
Preheat Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line your cookie sheets with parchment paper and set them aside.
-
-
Prepare Cinnamon Sugar Mixture: In the bowl of your food processor, fitted with the steel blade, combine the white sugar and ground cinnamon. Pulse quickly until mixed, then transfer the mixture to a pie plate.
-
Prepare Dough: Place the eggs, brown sugar, and canola oil into the bowl of your food processor. Pulse for a few seconds until the ingredients are blended.
-
Incorporate Dry Ingredients: Add the baking powder and all-purpose flour to the mixture in the food processor. Pulse just until the flour disappears. Be careful not to overprocess, as this can make the cookies tough.
-
Form Cookies: Take about 1 tablespoon of the dough and use it to form the cookies into twists or other shapes of your choice. For example, you can create capital letters for alphabet cookies.
-
Coat in Cinnamon Sugar: Roll each cookie in the cinnamon-sugar mixture prepared earlier, ensuring they are evenly coated.
-
Bake: Place the cookies on the prepared cookie sheets and bake in the preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are lightly browned. Larger twisted cookies may require the full 15 minutes of baking time.
