Cinnamon Roll Cookies

Ingredients:

• 2 and 1/4 cups (281g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
• 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup (170g) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature
• 3/4 cup (150g) granulated sugar
• 1 large egg, at room temperature
• 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract

Filling

• 2 Tablespoons (15g) butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
• 1 Tablespoon ground cinnamon
• Icing
• 1 cup (120g) confectioners' sugar
• 3 Tablespoons (45ml) milk
• 1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Directions:

1. Make the dough: Whisk the flour, baking powder, and salt together. Set aside.
2. Using a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with paddle attachment, beat the butter for 1 minute on high speed until creamy. On medium-high speed, beat in the granulated sugar until completely creamed and smooth, about 2 minutes. Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat on high until combined, about 1 minute. Scrape down the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on low until combined. If the dough still seems too soft, you can add 1 Tablespoon more flour until it is a better consistency for rolling.
4. Shape and fill: Divide the dough into 2 equal parts. Roll each portion out in a rectangle (about 9x7 inches) onto a floured silicone baking mat (or floured parchment paper) to about 1/4″ thickness. Spread 1 Tablespoon of melted butter onto each rectangle. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon together then sprinkle evenly over each.
