Instructions
Make the Cookie Dough
Preheat the oven to 350 F and place two racks in the oven so that it is divided into thirds.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together all dough ingredients except for the butter and vanilla.
Add in the butter and vanilla.
Mix with the paddle attachment on medium low speed until a smooth and cohesive dough forms.
Shape the Cookies
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
Portion the dough into 1 1/2 tbsp portions.
Roll each portion into a ball and then gently into a log that is 1/2" thick in the center and slightly tapered near at the ends.
Gently shape each log into a crescent shape and place on the prepared baking sheets. Leave at least 1" between each cookie.
Bake the Cookies
Bake the cookies for 15 minutes, rotating and swapping the baking sheets halfway through.
While the cookies bake, fill one wide bowl with the powdered sugar and one with the cinnamon sugar.
When the cookies are finished baking, remove the baking sheets and place them on wire racks to cool for 5-10 minutes.
Once slightly cooked, roll half of the cookies in the powdered sugar and half in the cinnamon sugar.
The powdered sugar coated cookies will need to be rolled for a second time after about ten minutes.
Leave to cool fully before storing in an airtight container.
Notes
These will keep well in an airtight container for 1-2 weeks. Optionally re roll the cookies in powdered sugar before serving or gifting.
