Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

By Raven Chelanee, on December 1st, 2011,

So we started making the product at home. It was a scary endeavor, so many things could go wrong. Everything had to be perfect or it would be a complete bust. But alas! The time and energy spent was well worth it. Our Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls were Delicious and satisfying. No other product can compare.

Delicious Rating: Yummy Yummy Time! If you are anything like my DH and I, you will finish the whole pan if not the same day than the next. These are better than Cinnabon and the easy recipe for extra frosting is free…and you can eat it right out of the bowl…These are also highly dangerous Cinnamon Rolls. You may become addicted. You’ve had your warning.

Yeast Monster!

Do this in a mixer with a dough hook if you have one.

I only added pecans to half the rolls. You can add them to all the rolls or omit them completely.

If you weren’t able to roll super tight, no worries, when they rise it will fill out.

This frosting is amazing! Do not be like me and eat the whole bowl!

Delicious!
