Daddy's Favorite Cinnamon Cookies
2 cups flour
2 1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup dairy-free margarine, slightly softened
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 tbsp water, 1 1/2 tbsp oil and 1 tsp baking powder - mixed together
Combine the flour, cinnamon and salt. In a separate large mixing bowl, cream the margarine and sugar with an electric mixer. Add the water-oil-baking powder mixture then cream again. Add the flour mixture to the margarine mixture and mix again until throughly combined. The dough will be crumbly so I press all of the dough into a large ball. Take a pinch of the dough, form it into a ball then place it on a parchment lined baking sheet. Continue placing even-sized balls, 2" apart, until the baking sheet is full. Bake at 350 for 11-16 minutes depending on the size of cookie you are making. The cookies should be set and the bottoms should be slightly browned.
* If desired, you can roll the cookie tops into some cinnamon sugar before baking (I recommend this step).
* You can press a fork into the cookies to form a criss-cross pattern.
* In our family, their favorite cookies were the ones that were rolled in the cinnamon sugar but not pressed down.
