the missing ing is lemon extract in the frosting I know I made this frosting when i work at cinn


These are delicious rolls, but I found that I didn't use a HALF of the glaze that I made, and I didn't use all of the cinnamon sugar mix either, so the second time I made these I significantly cut down on the amount of those I made, still really delicious though. I always receive lots of compliments on them!


This sweet roll recipe was very good and very easy! I was very impressed with how easy the dough was to work with and how well it handled and rose. I didn't use the filling/icing recipe, since i was just looking for the dough part but I'm sure that would be just as good! thank you for a great Cinnamon Roll! My boyfriend is very appreciative! ;)


I have made cinnamon rolls before and this recipe was as easy as any. The dough was nice to work with - smooth and elastic; it was very easy to roll to a nice thickness for buns. Next time, I will mix the nuts in with the sugar and cinnamon filling for a more even spread and I will soak the raisins a little as the ones that rose to the tops of the buns did toughen a little. I altered the frosting a bit. Mine had less butter and a 1/2 cup of water - less fat. I found that I could divide the dough in half to make smaller buns and subsequently divide the frosting and filling to make twice as many tasty buns. Makes a delicious start to the day :-)


Wow! Yum! My husband has always been know as the cinnamon roll King but tonight he dubbed me the cinnamon roll Queen. The receipe seemed to have a lot of butter listed for the filling, so instead of melting 1 cup, I only melted 1/2 C and this was plenty to put on the dough and in the bottom of each pan. I also took the advice of another review and used 1 tsp. lemon extract in the frosting and reduced the vanilla to 1 tsp. We made these to give to school teachers for Christmas.


Disappointed! The filling should contain BROWN SUGAR, not regular sugar. AND, Cinnabon's icing is a cream cheese icing. These were not as good as I was expecting.


this was easier than i anticipated! looks very impressive and very tasty. for smaller portions and less sugar... i halved the recipe and made 10 smaller buns; also didn't put the extra sugar/butter underneath the buns and only used 1/4 of the frosting. still very good!


I worked at cinnabon years ago. this is not how they make their rolls. The filling is made with cinnamon and brown sugar, they don't use melted butter,they use Oleo(margarine). The frosting is made with cream cheese. no nuts in a cinnabon cinnamon roll.


im just 11 and i was able to make these 5 times and everytime they turned out delicious!!!


There are a couple of errors/omissions in the recipe. For the dough, it says "...mix together warm water, yeast and sugar...." without specifying HOW MUCH sugar. Then step 2 says "remaining 2/3 cup sugar." Rolls turned out great (4 of us ate over 1/2 at the first sitting!).


I love Cinnabons and this was the closest I ever got to making some. In fact, this was better, I had to add more flour and I am not a chef, cook, or baker, but these came out wonderful that I was asked by friends to bake more, I ate two myself, Thank you for the recipe!!! and if you are thinking of this recipe to do, DO IT, you'll love it!!!


My daughter and I made these cinnamon buns and it was easy and very fun doing. I will always use this recipe and recommend it to everyone that will want to make cinnamon Buns. They were delicious and very fattening but worth every bite. Ty


I only used this recipe for the dough. The dough was very good and so easy to work with. I blanketed my dough with the butter, cinnamon, and brown sugar, then made my own frosting. Very, very, good!


These are GREAT!!! great dough and great frosting. I have to say, uh.... GREAT!! YUM


what a great recipe! this was really fun, easy, and tasty. only thing i changed was i used my own cream cheese frosting instead. thanks for posting this!


My family and friends love cinnamon rolls and my mom used to make cinnamon rolls all the time...these are absolutely delicious and the dough is wonderful to work with. I do use less butter than suggested but they still came outgreat!!!


I'm all about making stuff from scratch, and these cinnamon rolls were absolutely fabulous! I used quick-rising yeast just because I'm impatient, but I loved the way these things turned out. And who cares that its not brown sugar or cream cheese frosting...they're still amazing! The only thing I'd say is you could half the icing recipe because this was a lot.


I agree these are not cinnabon rolls! If you use brown sugar instead of white sugar in the filling. And add 3 oz cream cheese to the glaze so it actually tastes a bit more like cinnabon. And I find it alot easier to use softended butter rather than melted in the filling, it spreads alot easier. But the dough was very nice to work with.


I made these several times when I cooked offshore and everybody loved them. These rolls will bust any diet out there no doubt.


Seriously awesome. I am a lover of cinnabon and these are very close. I will definately make them again and again.
