To start, it’s crucial to combine the dry ingredients effectively for a smooth, even dough. Begin by whisking together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt in a medium bowl. This step ensures that the leavening agent is evenly distributed, which is key for achieving a uniform rise and texture in your cookies.

Ingredients
  

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

1 large egg

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

2 cups frozen yogurt (your favorite flavor)

1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

      Combine the Dry Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, blending until just combined.

        Add the Egg and Vanilla: Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated. The dough will be soft but should hold its shape lightly when rolled.

          Shape the Coins: Scoop tablespoon-sized amounts of dough and roll them into small balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, flattening them slightly to resemble coins. Leave some space between each as they will spread when baking.

            Bake: Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden. Be careful not to overbake. Let them cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

              Assemble the Coins: Once the cookies are completely cool, scoop a small amount of frozen yogurt onto the bottom of one cookie. Place another cookie on top to form a sandwich. Gently press to secure the frozen yogurt between the cookies.

                Dust with Powdered Sugar: Lightly dust the assembled churro cookie coins with powdered sugar for an elegant touch.

                  Freeze the Cookie Coins: Arrange the assembled cookie coins on a plate or a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and place them in the freezer for about 30 minutes to firm up.

                    Serve and Enjoy: Once set, your Frozen Yogurt Churro Cookie Coins are ready to be enjoyed. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the freezer for a delightful treat whenever you crave something sweet!
