My mom used to make these with leftover pie crust. I think the trick is to roll the dough thin and slice them about 1/2 inch thick. Delicious childhood memories!

Nice and easy to make. The only thing that made me nuts (and I should have known better) was putting the slices on paper towels to cool, like the directions said...made them all stick to the paper towels. A nightmare!

My granny was a professional baker and she called them cinnamon rolls. (Imagine my surprise as a child to see a real cinnamon roll, compared to what I knew.) We used butter instead of shortening. She also rolled them into small logs (about 3 inches) which I prefer over the thin version given in this recipe. Very, very easy to make and well worth it.

My Grandmother made these, too. They were called cimmitty-coo (when my Dad was little, he couldn't say cinnamon cookies). They're wonderful. Thanks so much for the damp smile! Off to the kitchen with me...

The cookies are amazing! However, when I took the cookies off the pan I put them onto paper towel - they STUCK to the paper towel! So, I will try them another time and let them cool longer on the pan before putting them on the paper towel.

These were ok - great if you have nothing else on hand, but I wouldn't go out of my way to make them. It was a neat idea, thanks for sharing!

An easy way to get rid of scrap dough. These weren't as sweet as I was expecting them to be, but they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again!

My mom used to make these for us when we were kids. They are the best.

My Mom always made these type of cookies for us after she made a pie. The only thing that she did different was to spread the dough with butter and jam then sprinkle with the sugar and cinnamon. Yum..... They were the best!
