Monster Cinnamon Roll Cookies


Who doesn’t love fresh cinnamon rolls to go with their morning coffee? Well, I do. I don’t have time right now to make full-fledged rolls, so I went with these Cinnamon Roll Cookies! The recipes I’ve seen are usually more shortbread-like cookies filled with cinnamon sugar and rolled into spirals. I prefer this softer version – kind of cake-like with a glaze icing. The dough was rather tacky, so I refrigerated it for awhile until it was easier to roll out and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar and butter. Rolling it up takes patience, but the outcome is well worth it. Be sure and flour your surface well to make it easier to roll.



The final cookie, although more cakey, does actually taste like a mini-cinnamon roll and goes great with coffee or milk. The cookies are quite large – almost as big as a real cinnamon roll!
