Ingredients

  • 1 (1 pound 1.5 ounce) pouch Betty Crocker® sugar cookie mix

  • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

  • ½ cup butter or margarine, softened

  • 1 egg, slightly beaten

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 375 degrees F. In large bowl, mix cookie mix and 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon. Stir in butter and egg until soft dough forms.

  2. On piece of waxed paper, shape 1 tablespoon cinnamon into a line about 5 inches long. Using floured fingers, shape 1 tablespoon of dough into a rope 5 inches long. Press one side of dough rope into cinnamon.

  3. On ungreased cookie sheet, coil dough rope tightly, cinnamon side facing center, into cinnamon-roll shape. Press end of rope into roll to seal. Repeat with remaining dough. Place cookies 2 inches apart on cookie sheets.

  4. Bake 7 to 10 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 15 minutes.

  5. In small bowl, mix glaze ingredients until smooth. Drizzle over cookies.

High Altitude (3500-6500 ft):

Decrease butter to 1/3 cup.

Success:

To drizzle the glaze easily, place glaze in a small food-storage plastic bag, snip off a small corner of the bag and squeeze to drizzle glaze over cookies.
