Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. In a large bowl, beat together the unsalted butter, vegetable oil, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
3. Add eggs and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until a soft dough forms. Chill the dough in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
6. Prepare the cinnamon-sugar coating by mixing the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon in one bowl and placing the powdered sugar in another bowl.
7. Remove the dough from the refrigerator and scoop out 1-inch balls of dough. Roll each ball in the cinnamon-sugar mixture, then in the powdered sugar.
8. Place the coated dough balls on the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the tops are set and crinkly.
10. Allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
