1-Making rhubarb cookies is straightforward and fun, starting with preheating your oven. Set it to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to avoid any mess.

2-Begin by beating together the 1 cup light brown sugar, 1/2 cup softened butter, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1 large egg until smooth and creamy. For more details on similar baking methods, check out our guide on easy fruit-based desserts.

3-Gradually mix in the 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon baking powder until a dough forms. Stir in the 1 cup finely diced rhubarb gently to keep the texture even.

4-Shape the dough into 1-inch balls and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them out. Bake for 12-14 minutes until the cookies are done, then cool them on the sheet for 2 minutes before moving to a wire rack.
