Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Coffee Crinkles
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together 1 ¾ cups of all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, and ½ teaspoon of salt until evenly combined.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of instant coffee granules with 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and stir until the coffee granules dissolve.
- In a separate large bowl, beat together ½ cup of melted unsalted butter and 1 cup of brown sugar using a hand mixer until smooth. Add in one large egg and the dissolved coffee mixture, mixing until fully combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients and mix gently until just combined.
- Cover the mixing bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
- Scoop out small portions and roll them into balls, then roll each ball in granulated sugar followed by powdered sugar.
- Place the coated cookie dough balls on a baking sheet, spacing them about two inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.

Notes
Refrigerating the dough enhances the crinkly texture. Avoid overmixing to keep the cookies soft and chewy. Experiment with flavors for unique twists.
