    List of Ingredients




    coookie dough
    ½ cup (2 ounces) powdered sugar
    ¾ cup (1½ sticks, 6 ounces) unsalted butter
    ½ tsp salt
    1½ tsp vanilla extract
    1½ cups (6¼ ounces) unbleached all-purpose flour

    filling
    1 large egg white
    1 Tbs water
    ¼ cup granulated sugar
    1½ tsp ground cinnamon

    icing
    ½ cup powdered sugar
    2 Tbs heavy whipping cream
    ½ tsp vanilla extract
    ½ tsp ground cinnamon

    Recipe





    1. In a medium-sized mixing bowl, cream together the sugar, butter, salt and vanilla.
    Add flour and stir well.
    Flatten the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate.

    2. Transfer chilled dough to a lightly floured piece of parchment or waxed paper. Roll it into a 9×12-inch rectangle.
    In a small bowl, whisk together egg white and water until foamy. Brush onto rolled out dough.
    In another small bowl, whisk together sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle it evenly over the dough.
    Starting with a long edge, carefully roll the dough into a log, sealing the edge (if dough sticks to parchment, gently use a metal spatula to guide it off of the paper). Wrap in plastic wrap or parchment, and freeze until firm.

    3. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease (or line with parchment) two cookie sheets.
    Remove the dough from the freezer and unwrap it. Using a sharp knife, gently cut it into ½-inch slices.
    Transfer to the prepared baking sheets
    Bake the cookies for 12 to 15 minutes, until they’re a light golden brown.
    Remove from oven and transfer to a rack to cool.

    4. Sift or strain the powdered sugar into a medium-sized bowl to remove any lumps.
    Whisk the cream into the sugar to make a smooth icing. Drizzle or spread icing onto cookies (or serve alongside in a bowl for dipping).

    Yield: 2 dozen cookies
