A delightful twist on classic cinnamon rolls, these cinnamon swirl biscuits are easy to make and perfect for any occasion.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Preheating ensures even baking and the right texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the baking powder.
Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Use a pastry cutter or your fingers for best results.
Add the milk all at once and stir just until the dough comes together.
Avoid overmixing to keep the dough tender.
Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and knead gently 8 times.
Overkneading can make the biscuits tough.
Roll the dough into a rectangle about 12 inches long and 6 inches wide.
Keep the thickness even for uniform baking.
Spread the softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with the brown sugar and cinnamon.
Ensure the filling is evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut into 12 slices using a serrated knife.
Mark the slices before cutting for even portions.
Place the slices in a greased baking dish, slightly touching each other.
This helps them rise and bake evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Check for doneness by looking for a golden color.
Combine the confectioners' sugar, milk, and vanilla extract to make the glaze.
Adjust the milk quantity for your desired glaze consistency.
Drizzle the glaze over the warm biscuits before serving.
Glazing while warm allows it to seep into the biscuits.
Serve the biscuits warm and enjoy with your favorite beverage.
Pair with coffee or tea for a delightful experience.
