Ingredients

Units Scale

Cookies:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 1 cup brown sugar (packed)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 brown sugar cinnamon Pop-Tarts (chopped into small pieces)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup cinnamon sugar (for rolling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 350°F and line baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. Cream butter and sugars: In a large bowl, cream butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.
  3. Combine dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon. Gradually add dry ingredients to the wet mixture until just combined.
  4. Add mix-ins: Fold in chopped Pop-Tart pieces and white chocolate chips.
  5. Form and bake: Scoop 2-tablespoon portions of dough, roll into balls, and coat in cinnamon sugar. Place on baking sheets and bake for 10–12 minutes, until edges are golden but centers remain soft.
  6. Cool and enjoy: Cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, drizzle the cookies with a glaze made of powdered sugar, milk, and cinnamon after baking.
  • Store cookies in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
