CINNAMON COOKIES

These are one of the best cookies I have ever eaten. They make up easily, and they disappear fast. I make these every year when we put up our Christmas Tree. I serve them with hot Cocoa while we decorate our tree. I swear the cookies are anticipated as much as the tree!

SLICE-AND-BAKE CINNAMON BUN COOKIES



Slice-and-Bake Cinnamon Bun Cookies image

Don't let these treats fool you! They may look like cinnamon buns, but their slight crunch and chewy middles are all cookie.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h35m

Yield about 14 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 16.5-ounce tube refrigerated sugar cookie dough
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon whole milk
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
Pinch of kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the cookies: Crumble the cookie dough into a large bowl and let sit until softened, about 10 minutes. Meanwhile, line a 9-inch square cake pan with plastic wrap.
  • Add the flour and baking powder to the cookie dough and mix by hand to combine. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan. Add another piece of plastic on top and press the dough into an even layer. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
  • Combine the butter, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon and salt in a small bowl.
  • Remove the top layer of plastic from the dough, then transfer the dough on top of the bottom layer of plastic to a work surface. Spread the butter mixture over the dough, leaving a 1/4-inch border. Roll the dough into a log, using the plastic wrap to keep it tight. Wrap the cylinder in plastic and freeze until solid, about 2 hours.
  • When ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line 2 baking sheets with parchment.
  • Cut 1/4 inch off each end of the cylinder with a very sharp knife to reveal the cinnamon swirl. Cut the cylinder into about 1/2-inch-thick slices. Arrange the slices about 1 1/2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until just cooked and barely golden on the edges, about 15 minutes. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheets for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • For the glaze: Combine the confectioners' sugar, milk, butter and salt in a small bowl. Whisk until smooth. Transfer the mixture to a small piping bag and pipe the icing back and forth in thin stripes over the cookies.

CINNAMON COOKIES



Cinnamon cookies image

Leave out a few of these cinnamon-spiced cookies for Father Christmas on Christmas Eve. Perfect for the festive biscuit tin, you could add some raisins too

Provided by Cate Dixon

Time 27m

Number Of Ingredients 8

120g softened salted butter
50g light brown muscovado sugar
150g golden caster sugar
3 tsp ground cinnamon
1 egg, lightly beaten
220g plain flour
50g raisins (optional)
1 tbsp icing sugar

Steps:

  • Beat the butter, muscovado sugar, caster sugar and 2 tsp cinnamon together with an electric whisk for 2-3 mins until well-combined. Add the egg, flour, baking powder and raisins, if using, and continue to beat until the mixture becomes a uniform dough. Roll tablespoons of the dough into balls between the palms your hands (you should have 12-15). Chill in the fridge for at least 2 hrs until firm, or overnight. The unbaked dough balls will keep in an airtight container in the freezer for up to three months (see tip, below).
  • Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/ gas 4 and line two large baking trays with baking parchment. Place the dough balls 3-4cm apart on the prepared baking trays to allow the mixture to spread without touching. Bake for 10-12 mins until lightly golden at the edges but still soft and gooey in the centre. Leave to cool completely on the baking trays.
  • Mix the icing sugar with the remaining cinnamon, then dust over the cookies. Will keep in an airtight container for up to five days.

Tips:

  • Chill the dough: Chilling the dough before baking helps to firm it up and prevent the cookies from spreading too much.
  • Use a cookie scoop: A cookie scoop helps to ensure that all of the cookies are the same size and shape.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough can make the cookies tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cookies at a high temperature: A high temperature helps to create a crispy exterior and a soft and chewy interior.
  • Don't overbake the cookies: Overbaking the cookies will make them dry and crumbly. Bake just until the edges are golden brown.
  • Let the cookies cool completely: Let the cookies cool completely on a wire rack before frosting or storing them.

Conclusion:

These Cinnabun cookies are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their soft and chewy texture, sweet and cinnamon-sugar flavor, and decadent cream cheese frosting, these cookies are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
