It is that time of year to get the oven busy baking cookies! I am a cookie baker by genetics, and I am sure my kids will be too! If there isn’t a fresh pan of cookies hitting the oven while the Christmas tree is up and Christmas Music is playing, well…it just isn’t Christmas Time!

- 1⁄2 tsp. Ground Cinnamon
- 1⁄2 cup Butter or Margarine, softened
- 1 egg slightly beaten
- 1 tsp. ground cinnamon Glaze
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp. milk
- 1⁄4 tsp. vanilla
- Heat oven to 375 degrees.
- IN a large bowl, mix cookie mix, and 1⁄2 tsp. cinnamon. Stir in butter and egg until soft dough forms.
- On a piece of waxed paper or a clean dry surface, shape 1 TBSP cinnamon into a line about 5 inches long.
- Flour your fingers and shape 1 tsp. of cookie dough into a snake 5 inches long.
- Gently press one side of dough snake against the cinnamon.
- Coil the dough snake like a cinnamon bun tightly with cinnamon facing the center. Press the end of the dough to seal. Place on a parchment covered cookie sheet 2 inches apart.

my dough is always to sticky!!! =(
You have to flour your hands and board. I didn’t have that problem though. Hope you get it figured out.
I make cinnamon rolls often, and these sound great. I wonder if it would be less labor intensive to roll out the dough, sprinkle the cinnamon on, then roll and slice? This is how I do cinnamon rolls, and as I have dexterity issues I wonder if this would work.
Also, chilling the dough briefly might help make it less sticky.
Just made these tonight and they were SO YUMMY!
We are a gluten free house, so I used Cherrybrook Kitchen’s GF Sugar Cookie Mix -it’s Dairy Free too! – and it rocked! Thank you so much for all you do
(Oh, I got the mix at a Super Target in case you want to make some GFDF ones!)
You are awesome! Thanks for the tip! I will totally be doing this! I have actually gone gluten free myself, and I am trying to make as many of my recipes as I can gluten free. It isn’t as easy as it looks
I love your pastry board! The cookies look yummy too!
