Method
Preparation
- In a large bowl, cream together the softened butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy (about 2-3 minutes).
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually blend this dry mixture into the wet ingredients just until everything is combined.
- In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Set aside for later.
- Divide the dough into two equal parts. Roll out one portion on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 3×4 inch rectangles. Repeat with the second portion.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Assembly and Baking
- Place a tablespoon of the brown sugar filling in the center of a rectangle, cover it with another rectangle, and seal the edges.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden. Cool for about 5 minutes on the baking sheet before transferring to a wire rack.
- To make the icing, mix together the powdered sugar and 1-2 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Drizzle over the cooled cookies and add sprinkles if you’re feeling festive!
Notes
Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. For a longer shelf life, freeze cookies separated by parchment paper.
