Introduction

These are so sinfully good you don't want to make these more than once or twice a year, but as Cinnabon had been a long standing tradition in our family we have to indulge in this luxury while overseas and nowhere near a Cinnabon.

    These were wonderful and it was my first time working with yeast. 10 minutes wasn't enough to bake mine, the center roll was still doughy. But they were delicious. - 1/1/14
