Cinnamon Roll Sugar Cookies

Some or all of you might begin to notice by now that i like Cinnamon Roll ^^ Yes, i do. I like Cinnamon Roll a lot, so much. I find them such a special dessert. They are so much fun to make: knead, roll, cut, ... just like sweet bread. Lovely texture when touch, look nice in special in form of spiral and taste that can be vary as you wish. Most of all, when they have the frosting on .. icing, cream cheese, caramel pecan, .. so hard to resist. Like this "Cinnamon Roll Sugar Cookies". I never try Cinnamon Roll in form of cookies before until now and i cannot stop baking them ever since. If you ever try once, you too, will do it again and again ^^ Yes, please try! 

Look at them?!?!?! Don't you want to taste them? even just one? Me, i cannot stop putting one in my mouth - one to frost - one in my mouth - one to frost. By the end of frosting process, i have only half cookies left :D (i only made 1/3 recipe though) and just when kids saw them, with a tiny pieces that fit well in their mouth, the other half was gone. Well, i did kept some for my husband but i must say that he cannot really taste them as there was not that much left for him :D
