Christmas Cinnamon Cookie Recipe

Christmas Cinnamon Cookie Recipe

Hello there again all! Last week I shared a fun little Christmas bow printable for free download and today I am back sharing a simple Christmas Cinnamon Cookie Recipe! I am joining Kristen from Ella Claire and another group of talented friends who are giving recipes to their holiday cookie treats!

Christmas Cinnamon Cookie Recipe

Christmas sweets really are the best and can it get much better than a holiday cookie?!… I don’t think so ;).

These cookies were adapted again from our family recipe box and it belonged originally to my great great grandmother.

Like the last few recipes I have shared, this one is available gluten/dairy free or originally as the recipe was intended.

I really enjoyed this recipe because it was easy to throw together and only took a handful of ingredients. Don’t get me wrong, I love a detailed and involved recipe sometimes, but let’s face it… Every once in a while, I just have time for something quick! This would also make a great baking day recipe as it yields many cookies!

Christmas Cinnamon Cookie Recipe

Here are the ingredients you will need to bake these cookies up (Yields around 3 dozen total):

  • 2 cups of sugar
  • 1 cup of softened butter (we used this df version)
  • 2 well beaten eggs (you could use flax seed in place for allergies)
  • 1/2 tsp. baking soda (dissolved in a tiny bit of water)
  • 3 cups of sifted flour (we used this gf version)
  • 2 teaspoons cream of tartar.
  • 1 tbsp. of sugar (for sprinkling at end)
  • 1 tbsp. of cinnamon (for sprinkling at end)

And here is how you will bake them up:

Use heaping teaspoons or a cookie scoop to drop cookies onto a cookie sheet…

  • Mix tablespoons of sugar and cinnamon to make a sprinkling mix.
  • Sprinkle each unbaked cookie with your cinnamon sugar mixture…
  • Bake cookies in oven for about 10 minutes (until golden around edges and on the bottom of each cookie).

  • Pull cookies out and let them cool. If you are using gluten/dairy/egg free ingredients expect that your cookies may have a flatter consistency to them. While they were not as fluffy, they were still soft (which is most important in my opinion ;).

Don’t forget to enjoy these with a nice cup of milk (almond if needed) and enjoy!

These cookies were a hit around here and I definitely plan to make them throughout the holidays! I hope you may enjoy trying them out too! A big thank you to Kristen for organizing this yummy hop and don’t forget to stop by each recipe below.

I look forward to seeing you later this week as I will be anxious to share some of our home dressed for the season…

I love wind chimes, chirping birds and dripping fountains... So you can imagine how fun it has been to be inside with the windows open and hearing all if those noises at once 💕. This could be a project that would be easily done with inexpensive pieces and makes a big impact for your outdoor space. Speaking of outdoor spaces, I shared ours all ready for summer up on the blog along with my friends. Come check it out if you need some easy ideas!

I am talking about how we use drawers, but try to keep things pretty/functional at the same time... Come check it out and see how we think outside the box when it comes to this space! One of my new favorite tips comes from these 100% Cotton Turkish towels we were gifted from @theloomia! Not only are they pretty, they are large, but save space at the same time... You’ll have to go see what I mean in my stories, see you there! And @theloomia is offering 15% off when you use the code - Zevyjoy15 💕
I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and I am currently working on Everly’s dollhouse and adding some fun wall treatments/trim... I only wish real size home DIY’s were as simple as popsicle sticks and wood glue 😂! Come see what I mean on stories... But I did grab some fresh flowers for the yard and shared how I simply decorate for this favorite season of mine, summer ☀️ . It’s all up on the blog and I am joining my friends too so come say hello 💕
I listened to your votes in stories and this old t I listened to your votes in stories and this old thrifted mirror got a few coats of “Play it Cool” (the color I had on hand from our kitchen cabinets 😉). And this hallway is finally done 🎉! Here is a little before and after... The board and batten design is from @anitayokota after I saw how she used it in her pretty bedroom I knew this would put a fun modern spin in the hallway. Some fresh paint, an affordable vintage rug and updated lighting completed this long dark space. Covering popcorn ceilings will come next, but I hope this shows how a little trim and paint go a long way when working on spaces! 🌿
This past week was a time to listen and prayerfully learn. My eyes were opened and my heart convicted to speak up and to do better... While I begin to share my content here, I will strive to move forward for change and find ways to support black lives here and at home.
Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawils Please refer to @blackandembodied and @jessicawilson.msrd for more about this movement. My feed will be muted here as I listen and learn. I will be in stories sharing resources that support black lives. #amplifymelanatedvoices
Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out Clearly blue is on our mind... We both walked out dressed sorta matching this morning 😂 This girl knows what she likes and asked to have her pink room transformed with blue... And you know when you give a mouse a cookie... 🍪 (Clearly I am the mouse 🐭 in this story 🤣) We finished up the new bead-board wall (I have trim touch up to do still) and then we are finishing spraying her little desk this afternoon. A couple vintage pieces are on the way, but otherwise I have been shopping the house for this little makeover. It’s all still in progress, but getting closer! And you all... This room is small!! So I am going to share how we tackle storage in this space so stay tuned in stories... 💕
Ever since I was little I can remember my dad tell Ever since I was little I can remember my dad telling me (who is a contractor/designer) the importance of using 3’s 💕. Now as I have made our own home, I almost always use the rule of 3’s whenever I am decorating. That goes for coffee tables, nightstands and more... I’m talking all about it and showing you some examples in stories today! And even more fun is that @boutiquerugs is offering 60% off with the code - ZEVYJOY60 ! This is the new rug we added from their collection to our bedroom here! So enjoy and have fun looking around at all their pretty selections... #boutiquerugspartner
You all know how I feel about pillows by now, don’t you?! 😂 Well in case you don’t... I think they are the best! They pull a space together affordably and make things cozy of course! You can trade them out or just keep adding to them (which is what I like to do 😉). And let’s face it, you can never have too many... Am I right? They are your artistic canvas in home decor and in my opinion there aren’t many rules to follow in the fun of mixing and matching them either! 🌿
Best of all, I’ve teamed up with 7 talented accounts to share how we used pillows to style our spaces. Head on over and check out what they’ve done... @thegingerhome
