Step-by-Step Instructions for Cinnamon Roll Cookies
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon. Set aside.
- In a separate mixing bowl, cream the softened unsalted butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the large egg and vanilla extract into the creamed mixture until smooth.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture, mixing until the dough comes together.
- In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon to create the filling for your cookies. Set aside.
- On parchment paper, spread half of the dough evenly to about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle half of the prepared filling across the dough.
- Roll the dough into a tight log and slice into rounds about 1 inch thick. Place rounds onto a lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes, until edges are lightly golden but centers remain soft.
- Let cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
For best results, ensure butter is at room temperature and avoid overmixing the dough for tender cookies.
