CINNAMON ROLL COOKIES

I made these for the first time yesterday - and they are super yummy!! They are really soft & taste just like cinnamon rolls. The recipe called for melted white chocolate on top, but I thought frosting would taste better. Either way.....delicious! :)

Ingredients:
1 cup butter, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar, divided
3 egg yolks
1 TBS honey
1 tsp vanilla
2 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cream of tartar
1 TBS cinnamon

In a large bowl, cream butter and 1 1/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks, honey and vanilla. Combine flour, baking powder, salt and cream of tartar; gradually add to creamed mixture and mix well.

Shape a heaping tablespoonful of dough into a 6-in. log. In a shallow dish, combine cinnamon and remaining 1/2 cup sugar; roll log in cinnamon-sugar. Loosely coil log into a spiral shape; place on greased baking sheet. Repeat, placing cookies 1 in. apart. Sprinkle tops with a little extra cinnamon-sugar.

Bake at 350* for 8-10 min. or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. Drizzle top with melted white chocolate or frosting.
