Easiest Cinnamon Buns











Want a really quick and easy treat? All you need is a package of Crescent Rolls, butter, sugar, cinnamon, and marshmallows.


Preheat the oven to 375. Melt the butter (maybe half a stick?). Mix the cinnamon and sugar together. (Umm, maybe half a cup of sugar and a couple of teaspoons cinnamon? Just do it how you like, as if you were making cinnamon toast).  Separate the crescents into sections. Seal the perforations to make rectangles. There are eight rolls in a package, I chose to just make four large rolls, but if you want to make smaller ones, you can press the dough together to make one piece, then cut into rectangles or squares to make more, smaller rolls. 



Roll each marshmallow in melted butter, then into a mix of cinnamon and sugar, repeat, so each marshmallow is dipped twice. Put the marshmallow on a piece of dough.

 Wrap the dough around the marshmallow, sealing the edges, and form into a ball shape. Dip each into the melted butter, and roll in the cinnamon-sugar mix to coat. Put them into cupcake pans that have been brushed with melted butter, or do as I did, and use small baking ramekins. ( Mine are actually clear jelly jars for canning).

  Bake in preheated oven (375) until golden brown, about 12-15 minutes.

 I didn't get all the perforations sealed well!

Remove the rolls from the pans immediately (Careful, the insides are VERY hot)

When you cut into the roll, it will be hollow inside, but coated with a yummy melted marshmallow-cinnamony coating. They smell heavenly, and taste divine!!

It doesn't get much easier than this, and they taste like something you spent a lot of time on. And, if you really do want to spend time in the kitchen, these are even better if you make them the same way, using your own homemade roll dough!
 Hugs and blessings!

  5. Thanks, Betty! They are good, and easy, and it doesn't make a huge pan full, which is nice for those of us without a big family to feed! Thanks for coming by, sweet friend!

  8. Taunnie, these are seriously better than the Pillsbury ones, and hardly any more trouble. I hope your family likes them as much as I do! You can make a simple glaze for them, if you like, but I think that is just one step too many.
    I am doing much better, after feeling lousy for the past couple of weeks. Not the flu, but a miserable cold, so glad to be on the mend. Thanks for visiting. Hugs and blessings!

  22. I'm having a weird problem I cannot seem to be able to subscribe your rss feed, I'm using google reader by the way.L'Reve 24k I have been surfing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours. Its pretty worth enough for me. In my opinion, if all webmasters and bloggers made good content as you did, the internet will be much more useful than ever before.TY for the great info! I would never have gotten this myself!http://www.healthcaresdiscussion.com/lreve-24k/
