How to Make Cinnamon Sugar Vanilla Wafers

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease two baking sheets.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together 1 1/2 cups (3 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  3. Beat in 2 large eggs and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 cups all-purpose flour and 2 teaspoons baking powder.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Stir in 1/4 cup milk until the dough is smooth.
  7. Cover the dough and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight for best results).
  8. Lightly flour your work surface and sprinkle with 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
  9. Roll out the chilled dough to 1/8-inch thickness.
  10. Use 2-inch cookie cutters to cut out the wafers.
  11. Place the cut wafers 1 inch apart onto the prepared baking sheets.
  12. In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the wafers.
  13. Bake for 6-8 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
  14. Remove the wafers from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
