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.)

Steam: Off
Temp: 350°F

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.
