1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup brown sugar
4 egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon water
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons white sugar for decoration
3 cups all-purpose flour
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
In a large bowl, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and brown sugar until smooth. Beat in the egg whites and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Mix in the brown sugar mixture. Place the cinnamon, water, and salt into a large bowl, and slowly pour the flour into the cream cheese mixture while it is mixing. Mix until well blended. Drop the batter by teaspoonfuls onto the prepared cookie sheets.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes, or until edges of the cookies are golden. Remove from the baking sheet to cool completely. Cool completely on wire racks.
