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.

This is the first time I have given a recipe online five stars! Absolutely the best recipe (cinnamon rolls) out there!! I took the advice of one review and added brown sugar, nuts, butter and milk to the bottom of the pan while rising....they rised beautifully and quick too! Thank you! Thank you!

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!!!!

These came out beautifully. I made a vanilla glaze to top them with and they were perfect with just enough sweetness for our family. We made a smaller batch (6 servings) and I used an 8 X 8 pan in our convection oven (which reduced the cooking time to 22 minutes). This was a simple recipe with great results. Thank you! We will use again.

I made these 2 days ago and they're still moist! However, I did have to add a bit more water and oil (just a few drops) to the dough because it ended up being a bit dry. I put butter before putting the cinnamon mixture (I added nutmeg and brown sugar as well) and then rolled them and I also put butter and more of the mixture to the tops. I also took the advice of another baker's post about putting the cinnamon mixture on the bottom of the pan as well. They came out very nicely and am thinking about adding orange zest/juice for the next time and an orange flavored icing as well...although it is fine without the icing! Thanks for the recipe!

This was a very good recipe i did use more cinnamon sugar mixture, i also spread a thin layer of butter on the dough when it was rolled out to make it extra googey. I will use this recipe again.
