- Bake for 10–12 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and the centers are just set. Do not overbake — you want them soft and chewy!
- Let the cookies cool on the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before glazing.
Step 5: Make the Glaze
- In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, milk, vanilla extract, and cinnamon (if using). Adjust the consistency by adding a few drops more milk if too thick or a little more sugar if too thin.
- Drizzle the glaze over the cooled cookies using a spoon or piping bag. Allow it to set for about 15 minutes before serving.
Tips for Perfect Pop-Tart Cookies
- Seal the dough well: Make sure the filling is fully enclosed to keep it from leaking out during baking.
- Chill the dough: Cold dough prevents spreading and keeps the cookies soft in the center.
- Customize the filling: Try adding a pinch of nutmeg or a spoonful of maple syrup for extra warmth and depth.
- Storage: Store cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days, or refrigerate for up to a week.
Serving Suggestions
- Enjoy these cookies warm with a cup of coffee or hot cocoa for the ultimate cozy treat.
- Crush and sprinkle over vanilla ice cream for a Pop-Tart inspired sundae.
- Reheat in the microwave for 8–10 seconds for that fresh-from-the-oven feel!
