Mini Cinnamon Rolls Cookies

 We made these last Sunday and they were delicious. I got the recipe from Taste of Home magazine and made a few changes. Turned out great! 

• 30 Servings
• Prep: 1 hour Bake: 10 min./batch + cooling

Ingredients

• 2/3 cup butter, softened
• 1-3/4 cups sugar, divided
• 2 eggs 
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar
• 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
• 8 ounces white baking chocolate, chopped

Directions

• In a large bowl, cream butter and 1-1/4 cups sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, 1 tablespoon honey and vanilla. Combine the 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-inch log. In a shallow bowl, combine cinnamon and remaining sugar; roll log in cinnamon-sugar. Loosely coil log into a spiral shape; place on a greased baking sheet. Repeat, placing cookies 1 in. apart. Sprinkle with remaining cinnamon-sugar.
• Bake at 350° for 8-10 minutes or until set. Remove to wire racks to cool completely. In a small bowl, melt baking chocolate; stir until smooth. Drizzle or spread over cookies. Let stand until set. Store in an airtight container. Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
