Add in the eggs and vanilla extract, continuing to blend until fully incorporated and the mixture is light and fluffy.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the butter mixture, mixing on low speed until a soft dough forms.
3. Shape and Chill the Dough:
-
Place the dough onto a large sheet of waxed paper and use a rubber spatula to spread it into a 9×6-inch rectangle, ensuring an even thickness.
-
Sprinkle the prepared cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the dough, leaving about 1 inch from the edges untouched.
-
Carefully roll the dough into a log or jelly-roll shape, starting from the longer side. The cinnamon-sugar filling will create a beautiful swirl inside the cookies.
-
Roll the log in the remaining cinnamon-sugar mixture until fully coated, then tightly wrap it in plastic wrap.
-
Refrigerate the dough log for at least 4 hours, or overnight if preferred. Chilling the dough will make it easier to slice and will enhance the flavors.
4. Bake the Cookies:
-
Preheat your oven to 350ยฐF (175ยฐC) and line several baking sheets with parchment paper.
-
Remove the chilled dough from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Using a sharp knife, slice the log into 1/4-inch thick rounds.
-
Place the cookie slices onto the prepared baking sheets, spacing them about 2 inches apart to allow for spreading.
-
Bake the cookies in the preheated oven for approximately 8 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the tops are set.
-
Once baked, allow the cookies to cool on the baking sheets for about 4 minutes to set before transferring them to wire racks to cool completely.
