  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 24 cookies

Ingredients

For the cookies:

  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
  • ½ cup brown sugar, packed
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup graham cracker crumbs

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, and cinnamon.
  • In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until fully incorporated.
  • Stir in the graham cracker crumbs.
  • Drop tablespoon-sized portions of dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
  • Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown.
  • Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Caramel Drizzle: For an extra caramel flavor, drizzle caramel sauce over the cooled cookies.
  • Add-ins: Chocolate chips, toffee bits, or chopped nuts (like pecans or walnuts) work great for extra texture and flavor.
  • Mini Cheesecake Version: Add small dollops of cream cheese into the dough for a richer, cheesecake-like taste.
