Ingredients
  

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar, packed

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Additional ground cinnamon (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Cream the Base: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

      Add Sugars: Gradually add granulated sugar and brown sugar to the mixture, continuing to beat until well incorporated and fluffy.

        Mix in Egg and Vanilla: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the batter and mix until thoroughly combined.

          Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, ground cinnamon, and salt.

            Incorporate Dry to Wet: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing on low speed until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

              Scoop Cookies: Use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to drop dough onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

                Bake the Cookies: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. The centers may look slightly underbaked; they will continue to firm up as they cool.

                  Cool and Dust: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Once cooled, dust with powdered sugar and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for an extra touch of flavor.

                    Serve: Enjoy your delightful cinnamon cream cheese cookies with a glass of milk or your favorite hot beverage!
