Cinnamon Roll Cookies

Found this recipe in a book and it sounded good. Make the dough, which includes cream cheese, and roll out like to a 9×12 sheet 1/4 inch thick. Well, there was more dough than that, so I rolled it out 9×18. Make up like a cinnamon roll and chill for 1/2 hr. Cut into 1/2 inch slices and bake for 10-12 min at 350F. Suppose to make 4-1/2 dozen cookies. Well, it didn’t quite go like that…

After 1/2 hour, the roll was still soft. But I wanted to follow the recipe first time around. Trying to cut these into 1/2 inch slices is near impossible, the dough sticks to the knife. This is where a plastic scraper/knife is useful, less likely to stick. Or leave it in the fridge for a couple hours.

Next was the baking time. While 350F is a standard temp for cookies, at 12 min they were no where near done. I ended up going for a total of 18 min AND 2 min on broil.

I suspect these might be a little crisp as 18 min might have been too long. I then made a small glaze to drizzle over.
