Here’s a fun fact. My book club read My Grandmother told me to Tell you She’s Sorry and one of the characters loves cinnamon buns and another character loves to make cookies. So I made these and they are excellent! Cinnamon bun in the form of a cookie! I did make the cookies a bit smaller (42 from the batch) and popped them in the refrigerator for 10 minutes or so before baking. I reserved a little of the cinnamon ripple to top off cookies that needed it while scooping. Terrific! PS – your site has become one of my “go to” places for recipes.

I’m not a baker but I couldn’t resist trying these. I wanted to make cookies to go with some fresh horchata I had made. These turned out fabulously! Marbled to perfection I added some crushed pecans to the cinnamon portion. It was like having a pecan cinnamon bun but in a cookie Thank you for sharing this recipe

In reply to Karen. Hi Karen! The cream of tartar adds a nice tang to the cookies. I do have a note below the recipe for a substitute. :)

Do I need cream of tartar? I don’t think I have any left and looked at the grocery store the other day and couldn’t find any.

I love them. I appreciate the fact you put both cups and grams so I didn’t have to eyeball it with the cups. I did have to bake them a bit longer because they were a bit raw inside, however the recipe itself was amazing

I’ve made these cookies multiple times — they are definitely a hit with my family! Recently, I was looking for a raspberry cookie recipe and decided to experiment, using this recipe as the base. I replaced the cinnamon in the ripple with freeze-dried raspberry powder, and used granulated sugar in place of the brown sugar, but otherwise followed the recipe as written. The cookies turned out so pretty, and the taste was exactly what I was looking for. I will definitely continue to make both the cinnamon and raspberry versions! Thank you!

Made the recipe with a 1/2 cup LESS flour because I like them less cakey and dense. I also froze / hardened the ripple before adding it to the dough and they turned out great. I would even try reducing by another 1/4 cup of flour next time.

These were sooooo good! perfect texture and flavor. I followed the metric measurements and had no issues. I used a cup to fix the ones that weren’t a perfect circle when they came out since some of the cinnamon mixture would leak over, but I expected as much when I found this recipe.

In reply to Lucie. I'm so sorry to hear this happened, Lucie! It sounds like there may have been too much flour in the dough. :(

Nothing about making this recipe worked for me. I weighed everything except for the flour. The base batter never pulled together for me. It was shaggy and almost crumbly as another person posted. Still, I managed to drop in bits of ripple and roll the cookies into small balls. The cookies look nothing like the pictures you have posted. Wish the link to the video you mention above was associated to this page. I couldn’t find it. Anyway. The cookies are ugly but they taste fine.

This recipe is amazing. We ended a really hard day with these cookies and they literally turned it around in ways you could never imagine. We worship the ground that sugar spun run lady walks on. Thank you again.

Absolutely one of the best cookies I’ve ever made. One of my family members does not like sweets. I gave him the first taste and he said they were so good he had to have another. These will be added to my list of cookies to make. Love them.
