Really Nice Spice Cookies recipe

2 servings

3/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

1/3 cup packed light brown sugar

1/2 cup dark brown sugar

1 egg

3/4 cup sifted all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon ground ginger

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Grease cookie sheets.

In a large bowl, cream together the butter, light brown sugar and dark brown sugar until smooth.

Beat in the egg until well blended.

Combine the flour, cinnamon, nutmeg and ginger; stir into the creamed mixture to form a stiff dough.

Knead lightly in the bowl for a few turns.

Shape dough into 25 small balls.

Place balls 2 inches apart onto the prepared cookie sheets and flatten slightly.

Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until golden.
