Preparation Steps
- Heat oven to 350°F. Line two baking sheets with parchment.
- Cream butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in egg and vanilla until smooth.

- Mix dry ingredients into the butter mixture just until combined. Add milk only if dough is crumbly.
- Stir rolling sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl.

Notes
Variation: Add a pinch of nutmeg or cardamom to the dough for a cozy spice twist. Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or freeze unbaked dough balls for 2 months; bake from frozen, adding 1–2 minutes.
