I Made Delicious Pizza Dough Cinnamon Rolls - Here's How You Can, too!

 Over the weekend I made Pizza-dough Cinnamon rolls. I got the recipe from a book I read in the Witch City Mystery series by Carol Perry. These cinnamon rolls are delicious and you can easily make them. Here's how. 

TIP: Prepare it on parchment paper to save a mess!

   For the rolls you need:

*Frozen Pizza Dough (we used Wegmans brand)

*Sugar, cinnamon, butter

For the glaze you need: 

*Butter, vanilla extract, powdered sugar and hot water.

  Here are the photos of the stages of making them, and the recipe. Enjoy! Rob

  

 INSTRUCTIONS:

*Preheat oven to 375 Fahrenheit (190.5 Celsius for the rest of the world)

 * DISH- It says 8x11" baking dish but I used 2 small 8" round cake or pie pans. Works better! 

* Mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. 

* Lay out Parchment paper or use a counter top- then sprinkle flour on it. 

* Roll out dough (w/rolling pin) to a 16x10" rectangle

* Melt butter slightly in a microwave then brush it on the dough (you can pour it on and use a paper towel to spread it).

* Sprinkle Cinnamon/Sugar mixture evenly on it (it looks like a pizza).

*ROLL IT length wise (so it forms a thick 10" roll).

*Cut , w/sharp knife into 14 rolls about 1" thick- (you may have to had mold a bit as  the dough is squishy). 

*In Pan - put 1 roll in middle, and surround it by 6 others. 

*BAKE for 20-25 minutes!! 

MAKE THE GLAZE- 

*Melt butter in microwave, mix with powdered sugar, vanilla extract and HOT water. Whisk it! 

*Drizzle the glaze over the slightly warm cinnamon buns! 

*STORAGE NOTE - put the pan of rolls in an airtight freezer bag (to keep them fresher).

* SERVING - If you still have a few later in the week, they may get harder, but just pop them in the microwave for 20 seconds!
