Sweet Potato Cinnamon Rolls image

My daughter Danielle has been on a baking spree. I love to get in the kitchen and cook together. The sweet rolls were nothing short of amazing. Great if you have left over sweet potatoes or just cooing up a few. Either way, you will be sure to love them.

Overall, I thought these rolls were pretty good. The sweet potato filling was a nice touch, but I think I would have preferred a more traditional cinnamon filling.

These rolls were a little denser than I expected, but they were still very good. The sweet potato filling was a nice change of pace from the usual cinnamon filling.
