Twisted Cookies image

I used to make these cookies a lot when my son was young; he loved the different shapes I would make. They are NOT a super-sweet cookie.

Time 25m

Yield 60 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup white sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
3 extra-large eggs
1 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
3 cups all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375F; have ready cookie sheets lined with parchment paper.
  • Put white sugar and cinnamon in the bowl of your food processor, fitted with the steel blade.
  • Pulse quickly, just until mixed, then empty mixture onto a pie plate.
  • Now put the eggs, brown sugar and oil into the bowl of your food processor and pulse for a few seconds, until blended.
  • Add baking powder and flour to mixture and pulse just until the flour disappears-- it is important not to overprocess or the cookies will be tough.
  • Use about 1 tbsp of this dough to form cookie into the twist of your choice-- I used to form capital letters when my son was young, making alphabet cookies.
  • Roll cookies in cinnamon-sugar mixture and place on prepared cookie sheets.
  • Bake in preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until lightly browned-- if you've made fairly large twisted cookies, you'll likely need the full 15 minutes.
