Cinnamon cookies are small sweet and fragrant desserts that you can eat for breakfast or snack. Its spicy flavor and winter aroma are best combined with a cup of tea, for traditionalists, or with hot chocolate, for those with a sweet tooth. Cinnamon is a fragrance that is undoubtedly reminiscent of Christmas and, therefore, you can also prepare them and give them to friends and family. They are prepared in the blink of an eye, just carefully follow the classic recipe for shortcrust pastry for pies.

Instructions
Put the flour in a bowl (1). Add the cocoa, cinnamon and sugar (2). Melt the butter in a bain-marie or in the microwave (3).

Add the egg and butter (4). Stir until you create a soft and smooth dough that you will then wrap in aluminum foil (5). Let it rest for an hour in the refrigerator. Take it out and start rolling out the dough (6) with a rolling pin.

Once spread, press the molds (7) and make the cookies (8). Bake at 180 degrees for 15 minutes (9). Sprinkle the cinnamon cookies with powdered sugar and serve.

Tips
To make soft cinnamon cookies, the advice is not to cook them for too long. Take them out when they are soft and still a little moist. They will dry out once you take them out, but if you take them out already dry they will remain hard. If you like glaze, you can prepare a cream of icing sugar and water in a saucepan. The preparation should be placed in a pastry bag to decorate the cookies on the surface. An even simpler solution is to sprinkle cinnamon cookies with a little brown sugar. In any case, always remember to cook them in a convection oven and never in a static one.
