About These Churros Cookies

• These Churros Cookies are easy to make using simple ingredients as you do not need an electric mixer.
• The cookies are packed with cinnamon and brown butter flavours. Yes, browning the butter will bring a ton of warm and nutty flavour to these cookies.
• Cinnamon is one of the most versatile and fragrant spices. It can be used in many recipes. Use good-quality cinnamon. Trust me, it makes a difference in your baking. I like to add it to my Brown Butter Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe. We add the cinnamon to the cookie dough and roll the cookie dough balls into a cinnamon-sugar mixture before baking.
• The other ingredients are simple and basic.
• The cookie dough needs to chill for only 15 minutes to prevent the cookies from spreading too much.

How To Make These Cookies

• Place the butter in a light-coloured saucepan and heat it over medium heat. The butter starts to melt and foam up, and as it cooks, its water content evaporates, and the fat content solidifies and turns into brown specks at the bottom of the pan. Once the butter releases a nutty aroma and the bottom of the pan is covered with golden brown specks, remove the butter from the heat, pour it into a bowl, and let it cool slightly.
• Start by creaming the butter with both sugars like any other cookie recipe. Use the paddle attachment to mix these three ingredients until smooth, creamy, and light in colour.

• Add in the eggs and vanilla extract and mix well.
• Sift all dry ingredients and add them to the mixture. Use a rubber spatula to fold the flour mixture into the butter mixture.
• Make small cookie dough balls with a medium-sized (1.7 inch/ 45 MM Ball, 1.5 tablespoon capacity) ice cream scoop.
• Roll the cookie dough balls in a mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Place them on a baking sheet, cover and chill them for one hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350F and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Place the chilled cookie balls on the baking sheets and leave two inches of space between them.

And More To Do

• Bake them for 10-12 minutes. Immediately after removing them from the oven, round them with a cookie cutter to soften their edges.
• Sprinkle their top with more cinnamon sugar.
• Let them cool down on the baking sheet, then transfer them to the cooling rack to cool down fully.
