I really need to do this more - baking that requires kneading. It's quite like a form of meditation. Once everything is measured with precision, you can lose yourself in the dough and knead to your heart's desire.
I followed the Cinnamon Roll 101 recipe by The Pioneer Woman. However, I used brown sugar in the filling for some extra sticky and sugary goodness. One mistake I made though was putting them in a baking dish that was too small.
It all worked out though. They baked just fine, the sugar got nice and gooey and they were lovely and doughy on the inside and golden on top.
Because, when it looks like this outside....
You just want to be inside your warm cozy candlelit home...
...enjoying one of these with a mug of coffee or tea on a cold winter day.
The other change I made from The Pioneer Woman's recipe was to choose a different frosting. I made a cream cheese frosting instead of the maple frosting that she used.
