Enjoy the delightful flavors of cinnamon rolls in cookie form with these delicious Cinnamon Roll Cookies. Buttery cookie dough rolled with a sweet cinnamon filling and topped with a vanilla glaze.
Ingredients: 1 cup butter, softened. 1 cup granulated sugar. 1 large egg. 2 teaspoons vanilla extract. 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour. 1 teaspoon baking powder. 1/2 teaspoon salt. 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon. 1/4 cup packed brown sugar. 1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts optional. 1/2 cup powdered sugar. 1 tablespoon milk. 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract.
Instructions: Make the butter and sugar fluffy by beating them together in a large bowl. Add the egg and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract and mix well. Mix the flour, baking powder, and salt together in a different bowl. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet ones and mix them together until they are just combined. Split the dough in half. Cover each half with floured paper and roll them out into a rectangle shape. When you're ready to serve, put the chopped nuts, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Spread the cinnamon-sugar mix out evenly on the dough rectangles. Start with the longer side of each rectangle and carefully roll it up into a tight log. Put the logs in the fridge for at least two hours, or until they are firm. Warm the oven up to 350F 175C and put parchment paper on baking sheets. Cut the cold logs into rounds that are about 1/4 inch thick. Spread the cookie slices out on the baking sheets that have been prepared, leaving about 2 inches of space between each one. For 10 to 12 minutes, or until the edges are just beginning to turn golden. After taking the cookies out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes on the baking sheets before moving them to a wire rack to cool all the way. Mix the powdered sugar, milk, and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a small bowl with a whisk. This will make the glaze. Add the glaze to the cookies after they have cooled. Wait for the glaze to set up before you serve.
