QUICKIE CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Unroll dough in one long rectangle and press to seal perforations.
• Combine cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over dough.
• Roll up jelly roll style starting from the short end and pinch seam to seal.
• Using a serrated knife slice into 4 equal slices. (I use unwaxed dental floss threading underneath the 'log' and then crossing the ends above the 'log'(floss makes an O around the dough, floss ends form a V) Pull ends to draw floss through to cut dough. Makes a cleaner cut.).
• Place rolls pinched side down in ungreased muffin tin.
• Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes or until brown. Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to wire rack.
• Mix powdered sugar and orange juice to make a thin glaze. Drizzle over the warm rolls and serve.

• Whisk 1/2 cup white sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon together in a small bowl. Sprinkle 1/2 of the cinnamon sugar mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle remaining cinnamon sugar over butter-brushed dough. Roll dough around filling to form a log; cut log into 18 rolls and place rolls in the prepared baking dish.
• Bake in the preheated oven until rolls are set, 20 to 25 minutes.
