CINNAMON SUGAR PINWHEELS

pie dough

-knob of butter

-cinnamon sugar

Method

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Roll out the pie dough pretty thin. Schmear it with butter. Sprinkle it generously with cinnamon and sugar. Roll it up tightly into a cigar. Put a little water on your fingertip, and seal the edge of the dough-cigar by barely wetting the edge and pressing it down. Slice into 1/3-in thick cookies. (Used a serrated knife, and saw them). Place on a cookie sheet, and bake for about 15 minutes or until crispy and browned.

When I was young, back in the 50s, I had an aunt who would always make these with her leftover pie dough after making pies. I loved these so much and still think fondly of Aunt Margaret whenever I fix them. No need to make pies to have them. Just buy the pie dough sheets in the refrigerator case at the store and proceed with recipe.

Can you also add finely chopped walnuts (purchase in supermarket) and sprinkle along with the cinnamon and sugar?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS

I made some of these yesterday to add to the goodies I'm making for Christmas. I added some chopped pecans to them. After they cooled I put them on a cookie sheet and placed in the freezer until frozen. Then I put them in a plastic bag and will keep them in the freezer until I take them to our Christmas get-together.
