Brown Sugar Cookies
Brown Sugar CookiesWho doesn’t love cookies? As a kid I can remember absolutely loving cookies, but not homemade cookies, store-bought. I loved going to my friend’s house and eating Fudgee o and Pirate Peanut Butter Cookies.
I used to think she was the luckiest person because her Mom bought cookies! I think it was the time of the 70’s when bought was always better than homemade.Thank goodness now we know better and there is nothing like homemade.
Sorry Mom I really, really do appreciate your amazing Peanut Butter Cookies, not to mention those amazing Whipped Shortbread, and of course I can’t leave out these tasty Brown Sugar Pinwheel Cookies.
I can still remember my Mom making these. They are so easy, whip up the dough which is almost a biscuit type dough.
Spread on the softened butter, sprinkle with a really good amount of brown sugar, roll it up, slice it up, bake until golden and there you have a simple but delicious crunchy, I-can’t-stop-eating-these-Brown-Sugar-Pinwheel-Cookies. Enjoy!

August 2, 2015 at 12:26 pmMy mother would do this with her left over pie dough. She used cinnamon and sugar. I’m definitely trying this recipe. Hope you’re enjoying your weekend.

July 31, 2015 at 5:09 pmThey certainly look yummy! Yesterday hubby made bagels because we were out and it was hot in the kitchen — thank heavens for air-conditioning. I’ll have to make the cookies once we get some cooler weather. This week I have to make the Tiramisu cake for my daughter, as I promised. Those cookies look like sweet rolls — hey I could have them for breakfast. Thank you for sharing. Have a nice weekend!
