I've made these twice, and we really like them! I only gave 4 stars, because it seems like there should be icing or something to make it complete. Very easy!

These are soooo good! They taste like the cinnamon rolls you make from Bisquick. YUMMY! I can never get the yeast right in regular cinnamon rolls, but I don't have to worry anymore. I used regular Crisco b/c I didn't have butter flavor. I made everything up the night before, sealed it up in plastic wrap, and then cut the biscuits off the roll in the morning. Perfect before school! Thank you!!

These are pretty good. I think next time I'll cook for maybe 10-12 minutes, add more sugar and try a glaze icing. If you go into it not expecting cinnamon rolls then you won't be disappointed.

This review has to be more on the idea of the recipe. I used buscuit mix and added brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla to it. I then kneaded it briefly and used a tablespoon to scoop out drops which I rolled in cinnamon/sugar mix. Using my fingers and the spoon I made them round and flattened them into buscuits. They were yummy with butter on them and like regular bicuits they freeze and micro pretty easy. Thanks for the idea! It is a nice alternative to cold cereal or pancakes.

Quick and easy to make, my son LOVED these. Used half white, half wheat flour, and "tub butter" for spread as healthier choices. Will add this to the family's repertoire.

I enjoy these on the weekends instead of the typical weekday bowl of cereal. I get requests for them very often.

I was pleasantly surprised with these "biscuits." I would say they are more like brown sugar and cinnamon rolls. They were very quick, easy and tasty. I had to add about 1/4 cup flour because the dough was very wet, but it was simple enough to knead and roll. I spread the butter (make sure your butter is very soft) and just sprinkled the sugar and cinnamon. I used floss to cut them and placd them on parchment paper. I liked these because none of the insides leaked out like they do with real cinnamon rolls and I used some cream cheese frosting. Delicious! My kids loved them too. Good substitute for a cinnamon roll, in my mind.

Using 1/4 cup of mild molasses & 1/4 cup of granulated sugar instead of 1/4 cup of brown sugar will keep these "biscuits" a moister, more caramel flavor.

I liked the idea behind this recipe, read some of the other reviews and decided to give it a try. I added a hefty sprinkle of cinnamon to the dry ingredients and used real butter, but otherwise I followed the directions. I know that over-kneading dough like this will cause it to be tough, so when the dough did not come together well I scrapped the idea of rolling it out like you would for cinnamon rolls. I shaped it into a circle and cut into into wedges for scones. I rubbed some softened butter on top and sprinkled with cinnamon sugar before baking. After baking I drizzled some icing on top and served them to my kids. They were a hit. One of my sons has repeatedly asked for them. They are a fast, easy snack or addition to breakfast.

I can't stop eating these! They are definitely biscuits and not cinnamon rolls, but delicious nonetheless!

I was disappointed considering the rave reviews. Mine came out just like biscuit texture in cinnamon roll form. Very disappointing.

Move over Cinnabun! I used "I can't believe it's not butter light" instead of shortening, skim milk and sprinkled chopped pecans over the brown sugar. My husband went nuts! Will make for the extended family at the next early morning get together. Used the icing at the end too! Yum!

From some of the other reviews, it sounded like they were expecting your traditional cinnamon rolls (the kind that requires yeast). These are not like that at all, and what I got are more like what the name suggests: brown sugar and cinnamon biscuits (contrary to what the author of the recipe claims). They have the flaky consistency of biscuits but with a sweet twist. Still very tasty though, and so quick and easy if you're craving cinnamon rolls but don't have all the time needed for it...
