First off, the directions are a bit confusing. It says to mix all dry ingredients, but really it is just the flour, baking powder and salt. I assumed all dry ingrediants meant including the cinnamon and sugar. My cinnamon rolls had an extra does of cinnamon and sugar. Secondly, the baking time is off. I baked mine for 18 minutes and they burnt. I would say 15 minutes would be good enough. The flavor of the rolls still turned out good. The outside was dry, but I assume that is because they baked too long. The inside was soft and yummy. I will bake these again, but will make sure to bake them less.

5 stars for simplicity and taste. I did add 2 tbsp of sugar to batter and also used 1 1/2 tbsp of butter to brush on the dough before putting on cinnamon and sugar. I added some Pampered Chef Sweet Cinnamon Sprinkle to the cinn/sugar mixture. Finally I baked at 425 degrees for 16 minutes. It was an easy way to have warm cinnamon rolls on a chilly weekend morning.

These were super easy. I added chopped walnuts to mine and they were an easy substitute for real cinnamon rolls. I will definately make them again.

My family has been making our version of these for years , so often that we can have a batch oven ready in 10 minutes. I have never had my cinnamon & sugar fall out after rolling . I suspect you either don't brush on enough butter before the sugar mix , or they aren't rolled tightly enough . Chilling the dough helps with slicing , & might help you keep the sugar on. I always use self rising flour (no extra baking powder here) , add extra milk if needed to get the consistency I want . And folks, like others say, THESE ARE BISCUITS ....they are not supposed to be like cinnamon rolls ! You can skip the filling & glaze & you will have biscuits! If you don't like biscuits , you will not like these, don't bother. All this has me wondering what else I might put in there ....butter & strawberry jam ?....diced ham & cheese?...cream cheese & jalapenos?

This was a great recipe. Easy to make, most ingredients are simple and on hand. Best of all, it does not require a breadmaker if a person does not have one! The only reason why I did not give this five stars was because it should be in the oven a bit less than the time it states. I know it said or until it gets brown). Aside from that,these were very yummy. My family and I thank you!

My 9 year-old son made this recipe and had this to say: "I really liked it, but I thought it could be a little sweeter." I thought it was great that a 9 year-old could do this with very little help. He substituted whole wheat flour for half the flour and it added a slight nutty flavor. The whole family really liked the finished product. Tasted exactly like you would expect a cinnamon biscuit to taste!

My batter was a bit dry and needed a bit more milk, so I'd use 1 cup instead of 3/4 cup. Other than that, the recipe was perfect, quick and easy. Definitely a keeper.

This was very good and very easy! I do think the batter needs a little more milk, and adding sugar to the dough wouldn't be a bad idea either! I used the cream cheese frosting II from this site! It was very good!
