Cinnamon Roll Cookies

If you like Cinnamon Rolls you have to try these Cinnamon Roll Cookies. They have the delicious cinnamon flavor and cream cheese icing in a cookie form.

These have been on my to-make list for months. The first attempt was not nearly as successful as this one. As soon as I started to roll up the dough it fell apart. I saved the day by making it into my crust for my Cinnamon Bun Cheesecake Bars but I still really wanted to make Cinnamon Roll Cookies. I made traditional sugar cookies like this a few years ago and I loved how they came out. This was a recipe I had to healthify.

Roll up into a log. Slice into 20 pieces. Put on a parchment lined baking sheet and press down gently so the layers meet.

Bake for 12-14 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges. Cool for at least 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine the softened cream cheese and sweetener. Put in a piping bag or sandwich bag with a corner snipped off. Drizzle on top of the cooled cookies.
