Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pie crust, homemade (here's my fave) or store-bought
3 Tablespoons granulated sugar
3 teaspoons ground cinnamon

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
On a floured surface, roll out pie crust into an approx. 12-inch x 8-inch rectangle. Sprinkle all over with sugar and cinnamon.
Starting at short end, roll crust until you have a tightly rolled log. Slice into 1-inch wide cookies. Place on prepared baking sheet.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, until pie crust is cooked but slightly underdone. Let rest on baking sheet for a few minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Enjoy!

3-Ingredient Cinnamon-Sugar Twists image

Provided by Dawn Perry

Yield Makes 12-18 twists

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Pinch of kosher salt
14-17 ounces frozen puff pastry, thawed

Steps:

Arrange racks in upper and lower thirds of oven; preheat to 400°F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Mix sugar, cinnamon, and salt on a large plate. Fill a small bowl or glass with cold water.
Roll out pastry between 2 sheets of parchment until short side is 10" long and dough is about 1/8" thick. Freeze dough 5 minutes. Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut dough crosswise into 1" strips. Transfer half of strips to refrigerator. Working one at a time, brush strip lightly with water (or use your fingertips), then immediately transfer to sugar mixture and turn to coat.
Starting from the middle, use both hands to twist dough to the ends. Transfer to prepared sheet, arranging twists vertically. Repeat with remaining dough. Freeze 10 minutes.
Bake twists, rotating sheets front to back and top to bottom halfway through, until golden brown and beginning to caramelize, 18-20 minutes. Using tongs, immediately lift twists from parchment and let cool with 1 end on rim of baking sheet (work carefully, sugar coating will be very hot).
