New Easter Tradition

Cinnamon Rolls!!! I hope to be the wife and mommy some day that wakes up EXTRA early to have these ready for breakfast... but as for now, these are ready for dessert. Best recipe. Kyle said, "these are phenomenal," then high-fived me? With tornados all around us today and the scariest thunder and lightning I've ever seen/heard... I already ate one in case we die. ENJOY!

Cinnamon Heaven

The only thing I changed was... to the filling I added chopped pecans and some almond extract. AND I did my own icing. Equal parts butter, cream cheese, vanilla and just however much powdered sugar I thought made it thick enough. Sometimes with these recipes all you taste is powdered sugar. No good! Keep it to the good stuff.

 this is the most my dough has ever risen, I was VERY proud!!!
 This dough is SO flakey and buttery... I want to use it for rolls!
Next time I'm going to DOUBLE the filling. It's good and there seems to be enough, but more would be better.

tell me that doesn't look cinnabon'ish?!

Happy Easter, go get yo' fat on! :)
