How to make cinnamon cookies with browned butter

Step 1 - preparations

• Cut the butter into pieces, transfer to a saucepan and melt.
  200 g butter
  
• Heat until the butter starts to darken and turns brown.
  
• Add sugar, mix and set aside to cool.
  200 g sugar
  
• Preheat the oven to 180 degrees (top/bottom).

Step 2 - preparing cinnamon cookies

• Into a large bowl, sift wheat flour, potato flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon through a sieve.
  350 g all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon potato flour, 2 teaspoon baking powder, 0.5 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  
• Add eggs one by one to the cooled butter, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
  2 eggs
  
• Add vanilla - if using, and mix.
  0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
  
• Mix briefly with a mixer, or stir with a spoon - the mixture will be quite thick.
  
• Chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for an hour to firm it up.

Step 3 - forming cinnamon cookies

• Scoop heaped portions of dough with a teaspoon.
  
• Roll them into balls in your hands - mine were the size of a large walnut.
  
• In a bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon together and coat each ball.
  50 g sugar, 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  
• Arrange the cookies on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper - I got 27 cookies and baked some of them on a second sheet.
  
• Bake in a preheated oven for about 12 minutes.
• Immediately after baking, the cookies are still very soft - do not remove them from the baking sheet right away, but let them cool for a moment. Then they will become crispy on top.
