Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, and ground cinnamon.
Add the cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the whole milk and vanilla extract.
Gradually add the milk mixture to the dry ingredients and gently mix until a dough forms. Be careful not to overwork the dough.
Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface to about 1/4-inch thickness. Use a small cookie cutter (around 1-2 inches in diameter) to cut out bite-sized shapes.
Place the cut shapes onto the prepared baking tray, leaving a little space between each piece.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
While the snackers are still warm, brush them with the melted butter, and then toss them gently in a bowl of cinnamon sugar until evenly coated. Let them cool completely.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
