    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

STEPS

1

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.

2

Place flour, salt, baking soda, and cream of tartar in a mixing bowl. Add cinnamon, ginger, allspice, cloves, and nutmeg. Whisk until thoroughly mixed.

3

In a separate mixing bowl, cream together butter, white sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Add vanilla and egg, stirring until thoroughly combined.

4

Pour flour mixture into butter mixture. Stir until combined or until the flour disappears. Wrap the bowl in plastic wrap and refrigerate dough for 1 hour.

5

Combine cinnamon and sugar in a shallow bowl.

6

Scoop dough into 2-tablespoon balls. Roll in cinnamon-sugar mixture, then roll into smooth balls. Place on prepared baking sheet, with 3 to 4 inches between each ball, and flatten slightly.

7

Bake cookies in preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until browned.

8

Cool cookies on baking sheet for 5 minutes. Optionally, sprinkle with additional cinnamon-sugar mixture.

9

For an optional glaze, mix confectioners' sugar with milk to achieve brushing consistency. Brush glaze onto cooled cookies and sprinkle with more cinnamon-sugar or pumpkin pie spice.
