Ingredients
48 servings
- •0.5 cup butter or margarine, softened
- •0.75 cup packed brown sugar
- •1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- •0.25 teaspoon baking powder
- •1 egg
- •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- •2 cups all-purpose flour
- •1 tablespoon superfine sugar
- •0.5 teaspoon cinnamon
- •1 egg white, beaten
- •3 tablespoons mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter or margarine and brown sugar until smooth. Mix in 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, baking powder, egg, and vanilla. Stir in flour by hand using a wooden spoon, as the dough will be stiff.
- Roll out tablespoon sized pieces of dough into 6 inch long ropes. Curl up one end slightly to make the head, then curl the rest of the rope towards the head in a spiral shape to make the snail shell. Place cookies 2 inches apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Brush cookies with egg white. Mix together the remaining cinnamon and superfine sugar in a small cup. Sprinkle this over the snails. Use chocolate chips to make eyes on the heads.
- Bake cookies for 8 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the bottoms are lightly browned. Let cool on the baking sheet for about 5 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
