eat make read

It’s a cinnamony weekend. Cinnamon rolls are one of the best ways to start the day, especially when their made from scratch. I read about this recipe on orangette and was immediately intrigued by the cream cheese icing…yummm! So I went to Bon Appetit/epicurious and looked it up.

This is certainly not a quick recipe, but I think the results were worth it. Making the rolls is pretty easy, it just requires lots of rising time, so it’s nice to make them when you have a good book or a different recipe that will fill the time. I ended up making the dough and rolling it up last night and then popped the rolls in the oven this morning, which worked out splendidly. I whipped up the cream cheese icing while the rolls were in the oven.

The final result looks a bit messy, but they were super delicious. It’s a good thing they take so long to make, because they could be dangerous if eaten more often.
