Instructions
- Gather all ingredients.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
- Combine 3 tablespoons white sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and set aside.
- Blend brown sugar and 1/2 cup white sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed. Add butter and blend until grainy. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until light and fluffy.
- Whisk flour, baking soda, and salt together in a separate bowl.
- Add to butter-sugar mixture, mixing at low speed just long enough to combine. Overmixing makes tough cookies.
