It was alright. I went with this recipe because i didn't have milk and didn't want to use add-ins like pudding mix or mashed potatoes. It's a fairly straightforward yeast dough, and did rise fairly well in the fridge overnight, but it definitely needed some time on the counter to really rise to it's fullest potential before going in the oven. Despite other reviewers saying it was overspiced i used the full tablespoon of cinnamon and was really disappointed-they were terribly bland. Still, it gets points for simplicity, and the dough itself is a good basic dough.

This recipe is quick and easy. Used 2 and 1/4 teaspoons of instant yeast, as that's all that's available today. Baking Is Awesome has a quick recipe for icing... One cup powdered sugar, one teaspoon vanilla, two tablespooons of whole milk. Also added 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice to cut the sweetness. I'd make this one again.

This is a great recipe ! I've tried a few other cinnamon rolls recipes and they all came out really hard. This came out really soft and chewy. I added some raisins because my family likes it that way and that was the only change I made. This recipe is a real keeper ! I have made a few batches of these and it came out great every time !

soft, light fluffy, slightly crunchy on the bottom. Really, perfect cinnamon roll recipe. I made them vegan by replacing the egg with 1/4 cup oil, and I only used about 2 cups flour. Sooo good, and all my friends ate them up!

This is a good, but do it in a 9x13" pan. I did it in a 8x8" and it is way too much dough for that size and the center did not cook.

This recipe was so simple! I made them the same night and they were lovely. I did add a little extra butter/sugar/cinnamon mixture because I like mine a little extra gooey and sweet. I can't wait to try this overnight and see how they are in the morning. :) EDIT: I also noticed people had said these didn't freeze well. I froze half a batch so I could have one on mornings I work, since the last thing I want to do after work is bake, and they were simply delicious!

Love this recipe! I have been making it and using the same recipe for cinnamon bread, everyone loves my cinnamon rolls/bread. Very easy to make. I personally love cinnamon, so I always add extra cinnamon and brown sugar. Highly recommend it to cinnamon roll lovers~

these turned out great! I added chopped pecans after sprinkling the brown sugar. . I also let the dough rest on the countertop for about an hour before rolling & cutting.
