Brown Sugar Spice Cookies

These had good flavor but recipe didn't make very many. I think I got 24 out of the batch. I skipped the topping.


Brown Sugar Spice Cookies
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup light butter
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 egg white
1 1/4 cup flour
1/3 cup whole wheat flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp kosher salt
1/4 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp nutmeg -- freshly grated

Topping - optional (I skipped)
1 Tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp nutmeg -- freshly grated

Preheat oven to 350. To prepare cookies, combine 1/3 cup sugar, brown sugar, and softened butter in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at medium speed til light and fluffy. Add vanilla and egg beaters; beat well. Lightly spoon flours into dry measuring cups; level flours with a knife. Combine flours, baking powder, and next 4 ingredients (through 1/4 t nutmeg) in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add flour mixture to sugar mixture; beat at low speed til well blended. Shape the dough into balls. Place 2" apart on baking sheets coated with cooking spray; flatten cookies with bottom of a glass. To prepare topping, combine sugar, cinnamon and dash of nutmeg. Sprinkle evenly over cookies. Bake at 350 for 9 minutes. Cool 10 minutes on pans. Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
