Instructions

Flour a clean surface and roll out the dough to 1/2″ thickness, in the shape of a large rectangle.

Brush with 1/4 cup of butter on the dough.

In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and cinnamon and sprinkle all over the cookie dough.

Roll the cookie dough into a log, long end to long end.

Refrigerate for 1 hour or overnight.

Preheat oven to 350F and remove the cookie dough log from the fridge.

Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.

Trim off the edges (about 2-3″) and discard. Slice the remaining dough into 1/4″ thick slices.

Place the slices on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet (or silicone mat-lined) at least 1″ apart.

Bake for 8-12 minutes, until just slightly golden on the edges.

Tips & Tricks (5)

Chill for Perfect Swirls 🌀
After rolling out the cookie dough and adding the cinnamon-sugar filling, refrigerate the rolled log for 15-20 minutes to help maintain the distinct swirl pattern when slicing.
Uniform Slice Technique 🔪
Use a sharp, thin serrated knife and a gentle sawing motion to create clean, even cookie slices without crushing the delicate rolled dough.
Glaze Game Perfection 💧
Let the cookies cool completely before adding the glaze to prevent it from melting and ensure a beautiful, glossy finish that sets properly.
Brown Sugar Hack 🍯
If your brown sugar is hard, microwave it with a damp paper towel for 20 seconds to restore moisture and make it easier to mix into the filling.
Non-Stick Sliding Trick 🧈
Lightly grease your work surface with cooking spray or use parchment paper when rolling out the dough to prevent sticking and make rolling easier.
