Polvorones de Canele

We have entered another state... New Mexico!!! And these cookies were so delicious that we just had to share:)

1 cup butter
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup confectioners' sugar

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

*Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets or use parchment paper.

*In a medium bowl, cream together 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar and butter until smooth. Stir in vanilla. Combine flour, salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon; stir into the creamed mixture to form a stiff dough. Shape dough into 1 inch balls. Mix together 1 cup confectioners' sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon; roll balls in cinnamon mixture.
*Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in preheated oven, or until nicely browned. Cool cookies on wire racks. Yummy!!!
