This turns out beautiful. I added the extra brown sugar, cinnamon and flour mixture. I used my own icing and they were gone in a flash, my family has requested I make these every Sunday.

This is the best cinnamon roll recipe ever. This is the most moist and chewy dough. Served with cream cheese icing. Yum!

I just made these and, though I haven't cooked them (I got them to the point where they are doubled and in the pans and stuck them in the fridge for tomorrow morning), and the dough was a DREAM to work with! I read the reviews and, though I didn't increase the amount of sugar in the rolls, I did do half brown sugar, half white sugar, tons of cinnamon and a dash or four of nutmeg. I made the full recipe and got two 9" cake pans full of smaller cinnamon rolls (I like thinner cinnamon rolls...you get more cinnamon and sugar per bite). Thank you so much for the recipe! I will be making this again and again and again!

I made the original and then split the dough and used brown sugar in the rest of the dough and spread a light layer of butter on the when I rolled it out to make sugar and cinnamon mixture stick. I also increased the amount of sugar and cinnamon and they turned out so moist and so good. My husband liked the one with butter and more sugar. AWESOME!!

These were great! I rolled the dough out, added melted butter, cinnamon and sugar and sliced them up. It made over 20 large cinnamon rolls. So many I had to share with family and friends!

This is a very good recipe!! First time I have made cinnamon rolls, it was easy and Yummy!!! I did add a lot more cinn. & sugar when rolling the dough into a log shape, and cut with thread. This recipe made 3 pie plates full... a HUGE batch, I made them a bit bigger than the 'pillsbury' tube rolls.... next time I will make a 1/2 batch.... Thanks for the yummy recipe

I made these this morning and they turned out good but not great. The dough was the right consistancy but they lacked in sweetness. Next time I will add more white sugar to the dough I think and also some white sugar on top of the butter. The dough was very sticky when I went to roll it out and knead and I ended up having to use about another 1/2 cup of flour just to get it workable.

SOO good. Same recipe my mom uses. However, what I've found to be the most effective way to cut the log is to use fishing line or thread. Cutting really scrunches the rolls up. If you make one long log, then wrap fishing line underneath in sections and cross the top as if you were tying a knot, it cuts much more smoothly.

This is a very good recipe. Kinda takes me back to when my mom made cinnamon rolls for Christmas Day. She did something different when it came to rolling them out. She would roll out a section, then butter the dough then add brown sugar, then cinnamon then roll them up & then cut them about 1" and repeat this til the dough was used up. Once your pan is full, you can add more Brown sugar & cinnamon to the top. She would let them raise overnight & pop them in the oven when she got up. So that after we opened presents we could have a snack. Those were wonderful days growing up. So I'm starting this tradition too. Happy Eatings!

what a wonderful recipe! I've made many cinnamon rolls over the years but this by far one of the easiest recipes I have used. I did increase the amount of fillings and substituted brown sugar for the white. Very delicious! Thank you!

These are great and not too difficult to make. I did follow some of the previous viewers suggestions and added way more cinnamon and sugar to the filling and rolled it out as one log and then cut the rolls. Also, I added powdered sugar/milk glaze to the tops when they cam out of the oven.

Not as soft or gooey as I would've liked. Definitely needed more cinnamon so I added a bunch more. It was also hard to get the cinnamon mixture to stick to the dough making it hard to roll up. These were "okay" cinnamon rolls. Not anything special, but were still somewhat tasty.

The dough was awsome! I proofed the dough a little longer than I was supposed to and ended up making 2 dozen rolls which cooked in about 20 mins. I also made a sticky sauce for one of the batches, the other batch I will frost as has been suggested.

Overall, we really enjoyed these hearty rolls. I do wish I would have read the other reviews and used more to sweeten them. I will next time.

I'm giving this a 5 for the dough!!! These turned out AWSOME!! A few adjustments were...I used milk intsead of water and I put 2 tsp. vanilla in the egg/oil mixture.(it makes the dough a little more flavorful...less like plain bread. I did these as a big rolled out "sheet" and smeared soft butter before my cinnamon/sugar. I keep a tub of sugar/cinnamon/flour that I use for my cinnamon rolls and fruit pies.(1/2 C. brown sugar, 3/4 C. white sugar, 1/4 C. flour, and 4 TBS. cinnamon...the four helps keep your filling inside the cinn. rolls, and works to thicken the juice in your fruit pie) These are also great if you spread diced apples on the dough before you roll it up...YUM!!

This recipe was awesome! Using the electric mixer to really combine the ingredients was perfect. I use honey as my sugar and it worked perfect!! I also melted 1/4 c. butter, 1/3 c. brown sugar, and 1/2 c. milk to pour into the bottom of the pan. Added pecans on top of that, let it rise during the night, put it in before church and it was by far the best cinnamon rolls ever! I also made plain bread out of the dough. wonderful!!!!
