Ingredients
  

Cookie Dough

  • 1 cup light brown sugar
  • 1/2 cup butter softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 large egg
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Instructions
 

Cookie Dough

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. In a large bowl, beat brown sugar, butter, vanilla extract, and egg together with an electric mixer.
  • Add flour, cinnamon, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Beat well until dough forms.
  • Add rhubarb and beat again.

  • Cool cookies on baking sheet for 2 minutes, then remove cookies from baking sheet and cool on a wire baking rack.

Notes

Make sure your butter is softened before beginning for easier mixing.
Cut the rhubarb into very small pieces to ensure even distribution throughout the dough.
