Leigh Anne says
They are so good. My husband likes them better than cinnamon rolls. Hope you love them too!
Kim says
Is it the larger quantity of yeast that allows them to rise higher in a hotter amount of time? If not, what is different in this recipe that allows them to be done so quickly? I will be making these fir Easter morning.
Leigh Anne says
Kim, Yep You are correct but the rolls don’t taste overly yeasty.
Laurel says
Do you think it would be possible to cut ingredients by half for just 6 rolls. There’s just two of us and 12 is too many!
Leigh Anne says
Laurel, I have never cut the recipe in half. I would just recommend making the full recipe and then sharing. That’s what I always do!
