Step 1: Prepare the Dough
Preheat your oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
Cream the Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
Add Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
Step 2: Make the Cinnamon-Sugar Filling
Mix Ingredients: In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and all-purpose flour. Set aside.
Step 3: Assemble the Cookies
Scoop the Dough: Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop a portion of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
