Preparation

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

2. Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.

3. Cream Butter and Sugar

In another bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the sugar mixture and blend until light and fluffy.

4. Add Eggs and Vanilla

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.

5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixtures

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring until just combined.

Assembly

6. Prepare Tortillas

Cut each flour tortilla into quarters to create smaller pieces.

Fold the tortilla pieces into the cookie dough until they are evenly distributed.

Using a cookie scoop or tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of the dough onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each cookie.

9. Sprinkle Cinnamon Sugar

Sprinkle cinnamon sugar over the top of each cookie before baking.

Baking

10. Bake Cookies

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes or until the edges are golden brown.

11. Cool the Cookies

Remove from the oven and let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
