Step-by-Step Instructions for Brown Sugar Pop Tart Cookies
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until well combined. In a separate bowl, cream butter with brown sugar and granulated sugar until fluffy. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth. Gradually add the dry mixture to form a soft dough.
- Divide the prepared dough into two equal disks and wrap each in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, cornstarch, and cinnamon. Mix well to create a sweet filling.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out one disk of dough on a floured surface to about ¼ inch thick and cut into rectangles.
- Place approximately 1 tablespoon of filling in the center of half the rectangles. Cover each with another dough piece and crimp the edges.
- Transfer to a lined baking sheet, brush with milk, and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
- Mix powdered sugar with milk until smooth for icing. Drizzle over cooled cookies and add sprinkles if desired.

Notes
Ensure your butter is softened, chill the dough for best results, and use about 1 tablespoon of filling to avoid spills during baking.
