It doesn't get any better than coffee sugar cookies. The little bit of cinnamon is very subtle in these great cookies. I hope you will enjoy this wonderful treat. I love Ethiopian Limu coffee in these cookies but it is hard for me to find now ... any of the other wonderful Ethiopian coffees ( Sidamo, Yirgacheffe, Harar,) would work well in this recipe. Please note the sugar has been adjusted.

How To Make coffee sugar cookies
-
1Line cookie sheets with parchment paper and set aside until needed.
-
2In a bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon and coffee and set aside until needed.
-
3In a mixer, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. (5 minutes) Now slowly add the egg and vanilla extract and combine well.
-
4You want to gradually add the flour mixture until fully combined, do not over beat. (dough should be slightly tacky and crumbly) If necessary add flour 1 tsp at a time until it no longer feels wet.
-
5Put the dough into the fridge to set for 30 minutes.
-
6Roll your dough out on a lightly floured surface to 1/8" thick. Cut with your choice of cutter or glass; then place on a prepared cookie sheet in fridge to chill for another 10 minutes.
-
7Preheat oven to 350F and bake for 10 - 12 minutes. Place on cookie rack to cool.
