1/3 cup butter, softened
2 cubes white sugar
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
3 tablespoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
7 cinnamon sticks
3/4 teaspoon cloves
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease cookie sheets.
In a large bowl, cream together the margarine, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, flour, baking powder, cinnamon and nutmeg until smooth. Beat in the flour mixture. Drop a cinnamon stick into the center of each cookie and roll the edges inward to seal.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes in the preheated oven, or until brown on top. Cool cookies slightly. When cool, transfer to a wire rack and cool completely.
