• servings: 36 servings
• active time: 15 minutes
• total time: 30 minutes

Ingredients

1 cup unsalted butter (softened)

1 cup granulated sugar

2 eggs

1 cup whole wheat flour

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom

1 teaspoon ground cardamom

3 Tablespoon granulated sugar

Directions

In a medium bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until combined. Then add the eggs in one at a time and mix.

Slowly pour in the flour, baking soda, cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon of cardamom in the mixing bowl. Mix until the dry ingredients are just combined.

Chill the cookie dough in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours. Don't skip this step!

When you are ready to bake the cookies preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.

Combine the remaining 1 tsp ground cardamom with the 3 Tbs of white sugar on a plate.

Shape dough into balls about 1 inch in diameter. Roll the dough balls in the cardamom/sugar mixture. Space the balls about 2 inches apart because they will spread.

Place on baking sheets with parchment paper and bake for 12-15 minutes, until the edges are golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack.
