CINNAMON BISCUITS, are delicious shortbread, very easy to prepare the flavor and aroma of cinnamon. In this period there is nothing better than baking cookies, especially if rich in spices.
These that I prepared are pretty simple, but if you want a “WOW” effect, you can decorate and embellish the cookies with a sugar icing and silver or colored sprinkles.
If you want you can also give different shapes, beautiful are also reindeer or omimi. They are the perfect dessert to accompany a tea or maybe has a hot chocolate.
They are also very easy to prepare, all you need is flour, eggs, sugar, butter and cinnamon, and molds of different sizes and shapes. If you have children they will be happy to help you, with them creating, baking and decorating will be really fun.
They are beautiful and delicious to put in a nice colored box, with designs purely Christmas a beautiful red bow and are ready to give to friends and family … with these you will never go wrong!

Ingredients
Let’s roll up our sleeves and prepare these delicious cinnamon biscuits
Steps
1-Insert the flour into a bowl along with the baking powder, cinnamon, butter cut into cubes and brown sugar, work the ingredients with your hands, you must obtain a sandy mixture.
2-Verse then the slightly beaten egg, honey and start to knead, then bring all the dough on the pastry board and form a nice loaf.
3-Wrap the shortcrust pastry in plastic wrap and let it rest 20 minutes in the refrigerator.
4-Divide the shortcrust pastry in half, roll out one part with the help of a rolling pin, do not roll it out too thin, at least 1 cm thick.
5– Cut out the cookies on the rolled out shortcrust pastry with the stencils, I used a large and a small star shape and small trees. Transfer the medium stars on a baking sheet lined with baking paper. With a little bit of egg white brush a corner of the star and place on top of the smaller star making it stick well (see picture)
6-Bake for about 8-10 minutes, cooking time may vary from oven to oven. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool on a wire rack, if stored well in airtight containers they will last up to 1 week.
