If desired, stir in nuts. Cover; set aside. For dough, in a large bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. Beat until combined, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat in egg, milk, and vanilla until combined. Beat in as much of the 2-3/4 cups flour as you can with the mixer. Using a wooden spoon, stir in any remaining flour. Divide dough in half. If necessary, cover and chill about 30 minutes or until dough is easy to handle. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough, one portion at a time, into a 12" x 8" rectangle. Spread each rectangle with half of the filling, spreading to within 1/2" of the long edges. For each rectangle, roll up the two long edges to meet in the center. Brush the seam where the dough spirals meet with water and lightly press together. Wrap each roll in waxed paper or plastic wrap. Place on a tray or cookie sheet. Chill for 4 to 24 hours. Set oven @ 375ºF/190ºC. Grease cookie sheets; set aside. Using a thin-blade knife, cut rolls into 1/4" slices. Place slices, cut sides down, 2" apart on the prepared cookie sheets. Bake about 8 minutes or until edges are firm and bottoms are lightly browned. Transfer to wire racks; cool. TO STORE: Layer cookies between sheets of waxed paper in an airtight container; cover.
