Ingredients
1 cup (2 sticks)
unsalted butter, at room temperature
½ cup
granulated sugar
2 cups
all-purpose flour
2 tsp
ground cinnamon
¼ tsp
salt
⅛ tsp
grated nutmeg
Steps
1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare Pans
Rack
Line two sheet pans with parchment paper. (Or, if you only have one sheet pan, place a second sheet of parchment on the counter for portioning the dough. Move it to your sheet pan after baking the first batch.)
Sous Vide Mode: Off
Steam: Off
Temp: 350°F
Heat: Rear
2. Make the Dough
In a medium bowl, beat together the butter and sugar with an electric hand mixer until evenly combined, about 1 minute. Add the flour, cinnamon, salt, and nutmeg. Beat until combined.
3. Portion Dough
Scoop the dough into 24 portions using a medium cookie scoop. Use your hands to roll each portion into a ball. Divide between the two prepared pans, spacing them evenly.
4. Press with Fork
Use the tines of a fork to press a cross-hatch pattern into each cookie.
5. Bake
Rack
Transfer one sheet pan to the oven and bake the cookies for 8 to 10 minutes. An 8-minute bake will yield a softer cookie. Remove from the oven and repeat with the second batch.
Sous Vide Mode: Off

Temp: 350°F

00:10 Timer
6. Cool
Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp as they cool.
7. Serve
These cookies are great served warm with a glass of milk.
