I don't know about you, but nothing says "good morning!" to me better than a hot cup of coffee and a cinnamon roll. Sure, coffee-shop cinnamon rolls would work, but who wants that when you can have these guys?! Stuffed full of brown-sugar, butter, and cinnamon and baked just until soft and slightly doughy in the middle, these "from scratch" cinnamon rolls fit the bill. Coffee shop, schmoffee shop, I say. :)
Brown-sugar Cinnamon Rolls
What You Need:
- 1 tube refrigerated breadsticks (I used Pillsbury, but any brand will do)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 5 tbsp. white sugar or sugar in the raw
- 3 tsp. cinnamon
- 1/2 stick butter (melted)
- 12 toothpicks
To Make Them:
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Pop open your can of breadsticks and lay each of them out on a cookie sheet (or a clean kitchen counter if you don't mind cleaning up the mess later!)
- Brush some of the melted butter onto each stick (I bought a cheap basting brush - one of the smartest buys EVER! I use it constantly.)
- Combine brown sugar, sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl until well mixed.
- Load sugar mixture onto each stick - don't be afraid to pack it on! The more, the better!
- Roll each breadstick and secure with a toothpick so that it can't unroll itself while baking.
- Place cinnamon rolls in an ungreased round cake pan and bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, then cover with a powdered sugar glaze (if you want).
- Eat, eat, eat! And don't forget the coffee.
Until next time, happy eating!
