My mom did the butter and cinnamon and sugar, then rolled the dough up and cut it into tiny cookies and called them pinwheels.

My husband makes the best crust I've ever had -- he's the pieman in our house. My father does not like pumpkin pie, but every year at thanksgiving, he asks hubby to bring his pumpkin pie and my dad has two pieces. We can't eat store-bought at all anymore.

Anyway, to your question -- there is a fight at our house for the leftover dough between the hubby and my two kids. They do everything from putting butter and sugar on it and baking it, to putting jam on it and rolling it up and baking it. We don't have a name for it.

However, you can buy in the stores here, rolled up dough with sugar and butter in it and that's called queues de soeur which translates to nun's tails, so I've always assumed that's what those little extra bits of dough baked with sugar were called.
