Mom's Homemade Cinnamon Rolls image

Mom has made these every year since I was young for christmas morning. These are really delicious and raise up so high. My brother and I still look forward to them, even though we aren't at home anymore. She had asked me to post these so others could enjoy them too.

These cinnamon rolls were a bit dense and dry. I think I might have overmixed the dough.

These cinnamon rolls were easy to make and turned out great! I used a bread machine to mix and knead the dough, which made it even easier.

I'm not a huge fan of cinnamon rolls, but I decided to give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The cinnamon rolls were soft and fluffy, and the filling was just right. I'll definitely be making these again.

These cinnamon rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using less sugar next time.
