Instructions
Creating Soft and Chewy Cinnamon Roll Sugar Cookies is easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, and salt until well combined.
3. Cream Butter and Sugars: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the egg and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
6. Add Cinnamon: Sprinkle cinnamon into the cookie dough and fold it in gently until evenly distributed.
7. Chill the Dough: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill the dough in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
8. Shape the Cookies: Once chilled, scoop tablespoon-sized balls of dough and roll them into balls. Place them on the prepared baking sheets, about 2 inches apart.
9. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden.
10. Cool: Remove cookies from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheets for about 5-10 minutes before transferring them to wire racks.
11. Frost the Cookies: In a small bowl, combine powdered sugar and milk to create a smooth frosting. Drizzle or spread over the cooled cookies.
