Steps:
- Beat the butter, muscovado sugar, caster sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon together with an electric whisk for 2-3 mins until well-combined. Add the egg, flour, baking powder and raisins, if using, and continue to beat until the mixture becomes a uniform dough. Roll tablespoons of the dough into balls between the palms your hands (you should have 12-15). Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hrs until firm, or overnight. The unbaked dough balls will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months (see tip, below).
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4 and line two large baking trays with baking parchment. Place the dough balls 3-4cm apart on the prepared baking trays to allow the mixture to spread without touching. Bake for 10-12 mins until lightly golden at the edges but still soft and gooey in the centre. Leave to cool completely on the baking trays.
- Mix the icing sugar with the remaining cinnamon, then dust over the cookies. Will keep in an airtight container for up to five days.

CINNAMON COOKIES
These are one of the best cookies I have ever eaten. They make up easily, and they disappear fast. I make these every year when we put up our Christmas Tree. I serve them with hot Cocoa while we decorate our tree. I swear the cookies are anticipated as much as the tree!

Tips:
- Use high-quality cinnamon: The quality of the cinnamon you use will significantly impact the flavor of your cookies. Look for Ceylon cinnamon, which has a sweet, delicate flavor, or Saigon cinnamon, which has a more robust, spicy flavor.
- Chill the dough before baking: Chilling the dough before baking helps the cookies hold their shape and prevents them from spreading too much. If you're short on time, you can skip this step, but your cookies may be a bit flatter.
- Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the cookies until the edges are just starting to brown: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake them just until the edges are starting to brown and the centers are still slightly soft.
Conclusion:
Cinnamon cookies are a classic holiday treat that are easy to make and always a hit with friends and family. With a few simple tips, you can make delicious cinnamon cookies that will be the star of your next holiday party.
