And soon , one cookie caught my eyes .. it&#8217;s cute , red and white pinwheel . I&#8217;ve heard about pinwheel , in fact , i had some recipes for it from my other cookbooks , but i never really give the effort to try , or not even tempted , maybe because there was no picture in previous books . Though i can picture it from my mind , but it&#8217;s always better when recipe comes with pictures , am i right ?<\/p>\n<p>So there i was .. couple of days ago , made 3 batches of cookies , one of them was this pinwheel , except with this cookies i let it stayed in the fridge overnight , so it&#8217;ll be easier for me to slice them . Just like when i make the parmesan crackers . They turned out beautiful , with of course , their buttery taste , the twist in here is the cinnamon sugar in the middle of the cookie . Other than that , i would think you can always replace the cinnamon in the middle with any extract you like , maybe some almond , or peppermint . Always great for the holiday .<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/pinwheel-cookies.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2208\" title=\"pinwheel cookies\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/pinwheel-cookies-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/pinwheel-cookies-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/12\/pinwheel-cookies.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">Directions :\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>2 cups all purpose flour<\/p>\n<p>1\/2 tsp. baking powder<\/p>\n<p>pinch of salt<\/p>\n<p>1 1\/2 stick of unsalted butter , room temperature<\/p>\n<p>2\/3 cup of granulated sugar<\/p>\n<p>1 large egg<\/p>\n<p>1\/2 tsp. of vanilla extract<\/p>\n<p>1 tsp. of cocoa powder<\/p>\n<p>red gel food coloring<\/p>\n<p>1 tsp. cinnamon<\/p>\n<p>1 tbsp. sugar<\/p>\n<p>1.
