- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup brown sugar, for filling
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar, for icing
- 1 tablespoon milk, for icing
- Sprinkles, for decoration (optional)
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, cream the softened butter and brown sugar together until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the egg, vanilla extract, and cinnamon to the butter mixture, and mix until well combined.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk, and mix until just combined.
- Divide the dough in half and shape each half into a rectangle. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- Once chilled, roll out one rectangle of dough on a floured surface to about 1/4 inch thick. Cut into rectangles (about 3×4 inches).
- Place a teaspoon of brown sugar filling in the center of half the rectangles. Top with another rectangle and seal the edges with a fork.
- Repeat with the remaining dough and filling.
- Place the cookies on the prepared baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Allow the cookies to cool completely on a wire rack.
- For the icing, mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cookies and add sprinkles if desired.
Notes
- For a fun twist, try adding chocolate chips or nuts to the filling.
- You can substitute the brown sugar with granulated sugar for a different flavor profile.
