It's weird how that since I joined this wonderful group, I take a photo of nearly everything I make...in case I get it posted on here :o) This is a fun cookie...I found this recipe yesterday on a site, and for the life of me, can't remember which site. So set out to make it today and it's rather yummy! I hope you like it and enjoy it...I did change up a few things. Marked as medium hard, just because it's a little putsy.

How To Make cinnamon bun cookies

1
Preheat oven to 375

2
In large bowl cream together butter, shortening and sugars until smooth. Beat eggs in one at a time, add vanilla, sour cream and combine.
3
Combine cinnamon, flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in another bowl then stir into creamed mixture. Cover dough and refrigerate for about 1 1/2 - 2 hours.
4
Filling: In small microwavable dish, heat brown sugar, butter and cinnamon in microwave. Stir frequently until butter is melted and its well blended.
5
On a lightly floured surface, roll out one half of dough to approx. 12x16 rectangle. Spread 1/2 of the filling over the rectangle. Roll lengthwise into a log, cut into 1/2" slices, place on parchment lined cookie sheet 3" apart and bake 9-12 minutes. Repeat with other half of dough and filling.
6
Beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy then beat in powdered sugar, vanilla and enough milk to make drizzling consistency. Drizzle over cooled cookies, allow to dry then store in air tight containers.
