Started the holiday baking early and these pinwheel sugar cookies might be my new favorite tradition 🍪
They look way harder than they are — just a simple sugar cookie dough, a little food coloring, and a good chill before slicing and baking.
How to make them:
1️⃣ Beat 1 cup unsalted butter and 1 cup sugar until light and fluffy.
2️⃣ Mix in 1 egg and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
3️⃣ Add 3 cups flour, 1½ tsp baking powder, and ½ tsp salt.
4️⃣ Divide dough into 3 portions — leave one plain, color the other two (red + green).
5️⃣ Roll each into a disc, wrap, and chill for 30 minutes.
6️⃣ Roll each color into a rectangle (about 6×13 in).
7️⃣ Stack: green → white → red, then roll tightly into a log.
8️⃣ Optional: brush with corn syrup, roll in sprinkles.
9️⃣ Chill again for 30 min, then slice into ½-inch rounds.
🔟 Bake at 350 °F (175 °C) for 13–15 min, until edges are set.
Cool, taste, and try not to eat half the batch warm.

* ½ cup vegetable oil
* 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1½ tsp pumpkin pie spice

Instructions
1. Preheat and prepare pans. Preheat your oven to 425 °F (220 °C). Line a standard 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.

* Add the eggs, oil, and vanilla; whisk until well combined.
* In another bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
* Add the dry ingredients to the pumpkin mixture, and begin folding. Before fully incorporated, add the milk, and fold gently until just combined. Some lumps are fine; avoid overmixing.

5. Fill the muffins.

* Add a dollop of the mixture on top of each muffin
6. Bake.
* Bake initially at 425 °F for 5 minutes.
* Then reduce oven temperature to 350 °F and bake for another 12 minutes, or until the muffin tops are set, and a toothpick inserted (away from the cream cheese) comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs.
7. Cool.
* Let the muffins rest in the pan for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to finish cooling.

* 1¾ cups all-purpose flour
* ¾ tsp salt
* ¾ tsp baking soda

3. Add wet ingredients: Mix in the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract until smooth and glossy.
4. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and baking soda.

9. Cool & enjoy: Let cookies cool for a few minutes before transferring to a rack. Enjoy warm with soft centers and caramelized edges.
