these were great little cookies! i messed up and put the cinnamon IN the cookies before i realized the cinnamon was for the cinn/sugar mix. they were almost like a gingersnap.. but so good and nice and soft cookie. cooked up great. i only baked mine for about 8 min. and i got almost 4 doz.. but they were probably smaller than the recipe says.. they were a huge hit though.. thanks!
