In a stand mixer, cream together the butter and sugar.

In a separate bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt.

In another small bowl, whisk together the eggs, coffee, and vanilla extract.

Add the egg mixture to the butter/ sugar mixture and stir until combined.

Slowly add in the flour and beat until just combined but don't over beat the dough.

Roll the dough into a large ball and chill in the fridge for an hour (or as long as overnight).

Once chilled, pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees F. Generously flour the ball of dough.

If making simple round cookies: take ~1 heaping tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball. Gently flatten the ball of dough before placing it on a greased/ lined baking sheet.

If making shaped cookies: generously flour a work surface and roll out the dough. Cut out your desired shapes and place them on a a greased/ lined baking sheet.

Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the edges just begin to brown.

Let cool only enough so that you don't burn your tongue and then ENJOY!! (preferably with a cup of good coffee).
