Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup Fireball whiskey

Add-ins

  • 1 cup cinnamon chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Sheets: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper to prevent the cookies from sticking during baking.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined. Set aside for later.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar together until the mixture is light and fluffy.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the egg, vanilla extract, and Fireball whiskey thoroughly into the creamed butter and sugars until fully incorporated.
  5. Combine Dry and Wet Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredient mixture to the wet ingredients, mixing gently to combine without overmixing to ensure tender cookies.
  6. Fold in Cinnamon Chips: Carefully fold the cinnamon chips into the dough, distributing them evenly throughout.
  7. Portion the Dough: Drop rounded tablespoons of dough onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
  8. Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are set and lightly golden.
  9. Cool and Serve: Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy your delicious Fireball Whiskey Cookies!

Notes

  • Use room temperature butter for easier creaming and better texture.
  • Do not overmix once the flour is added to keep cookies tender and soft.
  • Spacing dough about 2 inches apart allows cookies to spread properly without merging.
  • Store cooled cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • For a stronger whiskey flavor, you can add up to 1/3 cup Fireball, but be cautious of dough consistency.
