It took the better part of the night, but our cinnamon rolls are done! We made the single batch with the recipe from the Paula Deen cooking site. With my low carb high protein diet, I can not sample the wares. However the men in the home approve :) The recipe said it made 12, but if we had made just 12 the things would have been ginormous! Seriously too big for a little guy, or even a big guy like diggity dog to eat one. We wound up with 18 total. Here it is!

Buttered with cinnamon and nuts added
Brown sugar on top!
Rolling our rolls
Its a snake! No its just our cinnamon ROLL
Cutting our rolls off the roll... with dental floss
Before baking!
Small tray almost done!
Oh what a yummy smell!
First attempt at drizzling topping.. I didnt find it to be thick enough with 4 cups of powdered sugar, 1 cup of milk and 4 ounces of butter... so I added 2 cups of powdered sugar. Worked much better!
Rolls on the table!
Topped!
If you get really close to the screen you might be able to smell them :)
Another perfect project!

Yum those look amazing minus the nuts. You are one tough cookie to not break and eat one!
ReplyDeleteAgain I am amazed by your ability to stick to your diet despite all the yummy food around you. I would totally rationalize it and eat one, then give up and eat two...lol. No will power here whatsoever!
