Why not make a big stack of these Cinnamon Spice Cookies! A great addition to any fall cookie platter with a perfectly crisp and chewy cinnamon cookie.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, sift together flour, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, salt and baking soda. Set aside.
In the bowl of your electric mixer, beat the butter on high speed for about a minute. Add all the sugar at once and mix until pale and fluffy. Beat in the egg, golden syrup and vanilla and mix until combined, about a minute.
Add the flour to the mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until combined. Cover the cookie dough and refrigerate until firm, about one hour.
Remove the dough from the fridge. Using a teaspoon, scoop out small amounts of the dough and form into balls. Place at least 2 inches apart on the baking sheet.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes. Cookies should be crisp at the edges and quite soft in the middle when removed from the oven. Cool on a wire rack. Will keep up to 3-4 days in an airtight container. Can be frozen.
