Steps:
- Pre-heat oven to 350°F. Cut each cinnamon roll into quarters and roll into a ball. Place them in the bottom of a pan. I like to use a bundt pan, but a bread loaf pan works, too. Mix the granulated sugar and cinnamon and toss with the rolled cinnamon roll pieces. Melt the butter and stir in the brown sugar. Pour over the cinnamon roll mixture in your pan. Bake at 350°F for about an hour. Check at about 45 minutes to see how it is doing.
