Cinnamon Roll Cookies
These cookies capture the essence of a cinnamon roll in a crisp, buttery bite. You'll make a simple shortbread-style dough, chill it, then roll it out and spread it with a generous layer of brown sugar and cinnamon. Once rolled up and chilled again, the dough is sliced into pinwheels and baked until golden. The double chill helps keep the swirls defined.

Cream Butter and Sugar
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and caster sugar until the mixture is light and creamy. Beat in the egg and a pinch of salt until just combined.
Sift the flour directly into the bowl, then stir it in until a smooth dough forms.
