#1,676: Cinnamon Roll Pie Crust Cookies

After the cookies we made last week with pie crust, I still had 1 pie crust left in the fridge needing to be used up.  So I found this ridiculously easy recipe which was so simple, my 3 year old helped me make it!  The kids loved these and we would definitely make these again!

2 pie crusts made from scratch or ready-to-bake
1/2 cup Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
6 tablespoons butter, melted

Preheat oven to 450.  Line a baking tray with parchment paper and set aside. 

In a small bowl, mix sugar and cinnamon together.  Set aside.

Roll out one pie crust into a rectangle.  Brush surface with melted butter.  Sprinkle entire surface with a light coating of cinnamon sugar mixture.  Cut rectangle into four equal squares.  Roll up one square of pie crust into a little log.  Repeat with remaining three pieces.  Slice log into 1/2 inch pieces, trying not to press down too much, flattening the log.  Transfer slices onto baking tray, gently reshaping into rounds if needed.

Lightly brush each cookie with a little dab of melted butter.  Bake 7 to 9 minutes until golden brown but not burnt.  Remove from oven and let cool.

Repeat entire process with the second pie crust.  Serve and enjoy!
