It’s Cookie Time Again and These Cinnamon Roll Cookies Are Spectacular

Written by Published on in Cookies, Desserts

I was born with a baker’s heart, and one of my favorite desserts to make and bake are? Yes, you guessed it—it’s COOKIES!

Why is that, you may be wondering? I guess I would say my primary reason is this–they’re simpler and definitely a lot less complex than that of CAKES.

Though I do have a few basic and very tasty cake recipes here, and in time of which I plan to expand my recipe index arsenal, this cookie recipe was derived out of my absolute love of cinnamon rolls.
