But these cookies which can be baked at home, are a unique treat that may stir fond memories of Grandma's baking from your childhood, so give them a try. They will fill the house with the heady aroma of cinnamon as they bake and warm up the kitchen on a chilly afternoon. Mix dry ingredients together. Make a well in the center of the dry mixture. Add remaining ingredients.

Knead dough until it is well combined and quite soft and smooth.

Transfer mixture into a cookie press and press out onto a cookie sheet which has been sprayed with non-stick spray.

Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Place extra sugar and cinnamon in a bowl and roll the baked cookies in sugar mixture while they are still hot.
