Cinnamon Sugar Churro Cookies
Ingredients:
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/4 cup sugar (for rolling)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for rolling)
1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate chunks (for stuffing)
Directions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
In a small bowl, mix together the 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon for rolling.
Take a tablespoon of dough, flatten it, place a few chocolate chips or a chocolate chunk in the center, and then fold the dough around the chocolate to seal it inside.
Roll the stuffed dough balls in the cinnamon-sugar mixture and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
