Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
In another bowl, cream softened butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in eggs one at a time, along with vanilla extract, until fully incorporated.
Gradually add dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until just combined.
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon for the filling.
Roll out half of the dough onto parchment paper, sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar filling, and roll it up tightly.
Slice the dough into rounds about 1-inch thick and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until golden brown around the edges. Allow them to cool slightly before serving.

Notes

Chill the dough for 30 minutes before baking to help the cookies hold their shape.
Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized cookies that bake uniformly.
Store leftover cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
Feel free to add chopped nuts or chocolate chips for extra texture and flavor.
Check cookies a minute or two early to avoid overbaking.
