These were nice fresh from the oven. Not sure that I'd like them so much reheated. They didn't have quite as much flavor as I expected - seemed to need a little bit more of something. I accidentally mixed the cinnamon in because it was right up there with the flour on the ingredients list. Oops! Oh well. The more cinnamon the better! I went ahead and sprinkled the cinnamon and sugar on the top too - although I didn't measure or anything. I will also say that these were super simple to put together and were ready in no time! That's always a plus! -
Oh my, but these are yummy little devils! I just popped down three of them warm from the oven. With the light dusting of cinnamon & sugar, they would accompany a meal quite well. If you sprinkled the dough with a more generous amount before rolling them up, they would make a great breakfast pastry. I made these in with my Kitchen Aid & they were very easy to put together. I would recommend lightly flouring your surface when rolling out the dough for ease of handling. Do try these, you won't be sorry.

I live in Las Vegas. I was lucky enough to run into Recipezaar around Nov. 2000 and got hooked quickly. I am a cookbook collector and have been collecting recipes for as long as I can remember. My DH had to build in shelves for all my cookbooks! I like to dabble with OAMC and for a few years hosted the Budget/OAMC forum with some great people over there. Even though I don't work in the forum any longer I've set up a lot of cookbooks for the purpose of OAMC and stretching food that might be helpful. Please feel free to check them out! I go on food jags and cooking jags! Please come say hi to me and chat on facebook. I currently host a blog for saving money through finding deals and coupons if you are interested. Most of the time I try to cook and have a good dinner on the table but I'll be honest enough to say there is still fast food occasionally in the budget! I have had such wonderful support here whenever I need it. Thank you all for being here! Just a quick note on how I rate recipes:
? 5 stars - This recipe is perfect. (My DH is truly a critic and doesn't give 5's unless it's amazing) I would recommend it to others and would definitely make again.
? 4 stars - This recipe was good but I would change something in it next time.
? 3 stars - This is a recipe I would not make again but it was OK
? 2 stars - This recipe I would not make again and we didn't like it at all
? 1 star - This recipes did not work out/taste was unappealing and wouldn't make again
