Description

Indulge in the irresistible flavors of Cinnamon Roll Cookies – a quick and easy recipe that delivers the perfect balance of soft, gooey centers and crisp edges.


Ingredients

– 2 cups all-purpose flour

– 1 teaspoon baking powder

– 1/2 teaspoon salt

– 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened

– 1 cup granulated sugar

– 1 egg

– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

– 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon


Instructions

2. – In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

3. – In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and sugar together until light and fluffy.

4. – Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until well combined.

5. – Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until a dough forms.

7. – Sprinkle the cinnamon evenly over the dough, then roll it up tightly, starting from the long side.

8. – Slice the rolled-up dough into 1-inch thick slices and place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them about 2 inches apart.

10. – Remove from the oven and let cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

For an extra touch of sweetness, you can dust the Cinnamon Roll Cookies with powdered sugar before serving. These cookies also freeze well, so you can make a batch ahead of time and enjoy them later.
