I saw on Pinterest that a girl had used pizza dough to make cinnamon rolls. I don't have experience making cinnamon rolls from scratch, but I've read the recipes dozens of times and they take time; lots of time. They have to do two rises in addition to the other prep time, plus the baking. That's why I've never made it before. (It doesn't mean I won't make them eventually, completely homemade...) So, I was very exited when I saw the recipe for quick cinnamon rolls online. The prep time is very short and the results are delicious. Really delicious! My hubby doesn't eat many sweets, but let me tell you he ate almost every cinnamon roll from this recipe. Hope you guys enjoy this, and the endless options and combinations. Until the next one!
Ingredients:
1 (13.8 oz) can of (store bought) pizza dough
3 Tbsp butter (melted)
2/4 cups white sugar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
2 Tbsp walnuts
Icing:
2 oz of cream cheese
7 Tbsp butter
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 Tbsp 2% milk
1 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar
1/4 tsp salt
Procedure:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Prepare pie dish with nonstick spray
Open and unroll the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface.
In a small bowl combine the sugar and the cinnamon.
With a pastry brush or a spoon, brush the butter over the dough. Make sure to cover the entire surface.
Spread the sugar mixture over the dough.
Roll up the dough. The original recipe says to roll it from the 6 inch side, but I rolled it from the 12 inch side to get lots of mini cinnamon rolls.
Cut to the amount of cinnamon rolls you desire.
Place them on a 9" pie dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Icing:
Beat the cream cheese and the butter together in the stand mixer until creamy.
Add the vanilla and the milk and keep mixing.
Gradually add the confectioners sugar and salt. Mix until the icing looks smooth and fluffy.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Put the sugar and the cinnamon in a small bowl.
Combine them well.
Lightly flour your counter or work surface.
Open and unroll the pizza dough.
With a pastry brush or a spoon, brush the butter over the dough. Make sure to cover the entire surface.
Spread the sugar mixture over the dough.
I added walnuts to half the rolls. This or any other fillings are optional, but very tasty!
