Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
- Cream the softened unsalted butter and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth and combined.
- Gradually add the dry mixture into the wet ingredients, stirring gently until just combined.
- In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar and ground cinnamon until evenly mixed.
- Roll out the cookie dough into a rectangle about ¼ inch thick on a floured surface.
- Sprinkle the cinnamon filling evenly over the rolled-out dough.
- Roll the dough from the longest edge into a tight log and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Slice the log into ¼ inch thick rounds and place them on the prepared baking sheets.
- Bake for 10-12 minutes until the edges are lightly golden. Keep an eye to avoid overbaking.
- Cool on the baking sheets for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Whisk together the confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Adjust milk for desired consistency.
- Drizzle the icing over completely cooled cookies and let it set before serving.
