  8. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden brown on the top.

*Leftovers are great for freezing and reheating. Wrap tightly and freeze in an airtight container.

Icing Instructions:

  3. Spread or pour immediately over cooled cinnamon rolls and enjoy!

Feeling Fancy?

If frozen, allow the cinnamon buns to thaw for 10-15 minutes, cut across, separating top and bottom, toast, add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and you have perhaps the very best Ice Cream sandwich on earth. Or turn your cinnamon rolls into Cinnamon French Toast! Slice and coat in your egg and milk. Fry in a pan with butter.
