Cinnamon Cardamom Rolls

rolls

Used this recipe, letting them do the slow rise overnight in a refrigerator. In the morning, just popped them in the oven and then topped with icing. (The rolls are quite good without the added sugar on top, but I knew the tastes in this house run sweet.)

There is nothing, and I mean nothing, as good as a fresh, homemade cinnamon roll in the morning.

Update 11/16: This is the icing I used.

  • 1/4 stick butter, melted
  • 2 T milk
  • 2 c. powdered sugar, approx.
  • 1/4 t. vanilla

Beat ingredients together. Adjust consistency with milk or sugar as needed. Drizzle over still-warm rolls.

Update 11/21: Dylan from Eat, Drink & Be Merry helped finesse the photo to make a better image.

Hi Alan,

WOW! Those cinnamon rolls look great. I have a recipe for some that I've never tried. Did you find that they were simple to make? I'm thinking that I should make some soon.

Reid- they really are easy to make, as long as you allow sufficient time for the dough to rise.

Santos- Thanks!

Hi Alan,

I'm so glad the recipe worked well for you! I like them plain as well, but the icing does look like a nice touch.
