It's easy to get on a roll in the morning when these cinnamony treats greet you at the table. Writes Carolyn Wolbers from Loveland, Ohio. "These tender rolls have the same sweet aroma and glistening glaze as bakery rolls...only without the guilt."

These cinnamon rolls were just okay. They were a bit bland and the dough was a bit tough. I wouldn't make them again.

I followed the recipe exactly and the cinnamon rolls didn't turn out right. They were too dry and the filling was too runny. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cinnamon rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would recommend using less sugar in the filling next time.

These cinnamon rolls were a hit! They were soft, fluffy, and perfectly spiced. I loved the gooey cinnamon filling and the sweet glaze on top. I will definitely be making these again.
