How do you describe cinnamon rolls?
cinnamon roll is a sweet baked dough has a filling of vanilla extract melted butter and brown sugar. They are rolled on a lightly floured surface and cut in crescent like a Swiss roll. It is then left to rise in a warm place after we cover with an aluminum foil, until it doubles the size. Later, it is baked in a preheated oven until golden brown. Common toppings for perfect cinnamon roll include cream cheese frosting or a sugar glaze.
Although the cooking process is long, these warm rolls are perfect for an easy breakfast next few days. Best part, your house smells awesome when they are done!
