1 cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs, room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
2 tablespoons milk (for icing)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and brown sugar until fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
Add eggs one at a time along with vanilla extract; mix until combined.
In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and cinnamon. Gradually incorporate this mixture into the wet ingredients until just combined.
Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop rounded balls of dough onto a lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart.
Bake for 10-12 minutes or until edges are lightly golden. Let cookies cool before icing.
For the icing, whisk powdered sugar with milk until smooth and drizzle over cooled cookies.
