Cinnamon cookies are a favorite treat in our family. We love cookies! It doesn’t seem to matter what you do with a cookie, we like it. Southerners are like that! I make these sour cream cookies as a breakfast treat, but they’re always nice to reheat. Just add a tall glass of milk or a cup of hot coffee and both adults and children will love this recipe.

Cinnamon Cookies Ingredients needed:
all purpose flour
baking powder
Salt
sugar
Cinammon
Ground nutmeg
butter
sour cream
vanilla flavor
Raisins (optional)
buttermilk
Topping for biscuits
powdered sugar
milk
You can also use milk instead of buttermilk in this cookie recipe, which I’ve done many times. However, I believe that buttermilk always makes cookies better.
If you’re not a fan of raisins, just leave them out. The texture of these cookies is wonderful and the topping is so good.
I use a 15 ounce vegetable can to cut these out because they make big cookies. You can use whatever size of cutter you want.

“I made these with three changes because I can’t have dairy. I’ve used non-dairy sour cream, plant-based butter, and almond milk… they turned out great! An absolute goalkeeper.” -Latin
“They are SO good! I was a little wary of using that much cinnamon, but boy was I wrong – these are delicious! And also very nicely toasted and buttered!” – Jessica
