1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
1/3 cup sugar, + 2 tbsp. for rolling cookies
1 large egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line or grease baking sheets and set aside.

Combine flour, cocoa, nutmeg, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Beat butter and 1/3 cup sugar until creamy. Add egg and vanilla. Stir in dry ingredients until smooth.

Mix together cinnamon and 2 tbsp. of sugar. Pinch dough into walnut-sized pieces and roll into balls. Roll each ball in cinnamon/sugar mixture, and place on baking sheets.
