Mexican Cinnamon Cookies

1 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
2 1/2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar or 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

In large bowl with electric mixer at high speed, beat butter until light and fluffy. At low speed, beat in 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar, flour, cinnamon, vanilla extract and salt just until combined. Dough will be stiff. Shape into a ball; wrap in wax paper. Refrigerate 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

To make ball cookies, roll into 3/4-inch balls. To make flat cookies, roll into 1-inch balls and flatten with fingers to about 1/4 inch thickness. Place 1 1/2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets. Bake 10 minutes or until golden brown.

Combine sugar and cinnamon. Roll hot cookies in mixture. Cool and sprinkle with remaining mixture.
