Instructions
These cookies are really easy to make, too. They are always loved when I take them to gatherings. Make the dough. Once the ingredients form a soft dough in your mixer, you form the dough into a ball and then roll it into a 13×14-inch rectangle. You can then mix your Cinnamon Filling in the same mixing bowl without having to wash it first. How easy is that! Make the filling. Make sure your butter is at room temperature or a little softer to make the filling spread more easily. Beat all ingredients for the filling until light and fluffy. Make the cookies. then spread the filling over the dough. Roll the dough tightly from the bottom edge, wrap it with plastic wrap, and freeze for an hour. Simply remove the plastic wrap, slice the cookies into 1/4-inch slices, and bake until golden brown. Make the glaze. The glaze is so easy! No need for a mixer for this. Just mix in a bowl with a spoon. Irvin brushes his cookies with the glaze. As you can see, I poured it over mine. Either way, these cookies are scrumptious! Every recipe in his book is a must-make on my list! Enjoy!Robyn xo
