5. With the mixer on low, slowly add the dry ingredients and mix until combined.

8. In a small mixing bowl, mix together ¼ cup granulated sugar with 1½ tsp. cinnamon.
9. Scoop dough into balls about 2 even tbsp. each.
10. Roll dough ball in cinnamon/sugar mixture to evenly coat then transfer to parchment paper lined baking sheet spacing cookies 2-inches apart.
11. Bake in preheated oven 12 - 14 minutes (they will look soft but will cook more while cooling). Cook on baking sheet about 5 minutes then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
