Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ½ cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (for icing)
  • 2 tbsp milk (adjust as needed)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy (about 3 minutes).
  3. Beat in the egg and vanilla extract until smooth.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Gradually add this dry mix to the wet ingredients while stirring gently until just combined.
  5. For the filling, mix softened butter with brown sugar and cinnamon. Spread this mixture evenly over the dough before rolling it tightly into a log.
  6. Slice the log into rounds about an inch thick and place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden around the edges but soft in the center.
