Honey Bun Cookies are a soft and delicious cookie that look like a honey bun and is topped with a delicious honey butter glaze. This incredible honey bun cookie recipe has a warm cinnamon flavor and the fluffy texture is simply amazing.
Make dough: In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Next, add in the eggs and vanilla extract and beat to combine.
In a separate small bowl, combine the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt with a whisk. Then, add the dry ingredients to the butter and sugar mixture and stir well to combine.
Scoop: After that, line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and spray it well with nonstick cooking spray.
Use a large sized cookie scoop to scoop out the dough and roll them into balls. Press the dough balls down into1/4 inch sized discs. Using a thick knife (like a butter knife) or a chopstick, make a spiral shape in the top of each cookie.
Chill and Bake: Proceed to place the sheet of cookies into the freezer for 10 minutes to chill. Start preheating the oven to 350 degrees F while the cookies are chilling.
Then, remove the cookies from the freezer and place them into the oven. Bake for 13-15 minutes or until the cookies are still soft and are just baked.
Glaze: While the cookies are baking, prepare the glaze for the topping. In a medium size bowl, mix together the butter, sugar, honey, and milk with a whisk until fully blended and smooth.
Be sure to let the cookies cool completely before glazing the tops. Once cooled, brush the icing over the entire tops and sides of each of the cookies.
Let the icing set and harden before eating the cookies. Serve and enjoy!
