best Cinnamon Roll Cookie recipe
It’s time to bake the ... WHY? Because when the Holiday Season comes rolling around, as it does every year, and that means it’s time to start living according to the that stress free schedule. Up in the morning… get everyone dressed… get everyone fed… pack lunches…. wave good-bye! Then head back into the house for a cup of coffee and a day in front of the TV and naps.

KIDDING!

The Holiday Season… this means my bank account begins to hemorrhage as we walk through the mall shopping for the perfect gifts for everyone I’ve ever met.

Ahhh… the Mall…. hoards of frenzied shoppers and that smell of cinnamon that wafts out of the Cinnabon Shop. Mmmmmmm cinnamon…. the perfect antidote for the the madness that swirls around me this time of year.

But.. Cinnabons are a calorie BOMB… over 700 calories for one. Sigh. I have to stride through the mall for hours to come close to working that off.

The answer? Cinnamon Roll Cookies… they are small, but packed with flavor. (Truly, this really is the … I’ve tried them all!) Now.. I’m not suggesting that these are a diet food (unless you are living on a diet of butter and sugar, and after days like today, I’m seriously considering it), but a few of these won’t wipe out your daily allowance of calories.

This simple cookie is made in a food processor… flour, sugar, butter and a bit of maple syrup… then rolled up around more sugar, and some cinnamon. Mmmmm.

I took some of these along in for the schools annual Holiday Concert… they VANISHED!

Added bonus… they are easy to make, and you can set the dough up ahead of time to just slice and bake as needed.

Make Rolling Out Cookies a SNAP

I love my Marble Slab for rolling out cookie dough… it’s cold and smooth, so dough doesn’t get sticky. This rolling pin makes measuring the thickness of the dough so much easier…
