On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a rectangle, 18″ x 10″.

Filling

2 T. sugar

2 T. chopped pecans

1 tsp. ground cinnamon

Combine all filling ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle over cookie dough and press down gently. Beginning with the long side, roll up dough jelly-roll fashion. Place seam side down and cover with heavy-duty plastic wrap and/or parchment paper. Refrigerate 2 hours or overnight.Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut dough into 1/2-inch slices. On a sprayed/greased/lined baking sheet, place dough slices about 3 to 4 inches apart. Bake for 9 to 11 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool slightly on baking sheets, then place on wire racks to cool completely.

NOTE! You can also drizzle a simple powdered sugar glaze over these.
