We love cinnamon rolls and I love that this recipe has all of the deliciousness without all of that rolling of dough.
ReplyDeleteCan you make this the night before and bake the next morning?
ReplyDeleteI never have but don't see why not.
DeleteThis sounds absolutely divine! ♡ However, I can only imagine the calories attributed to such delightful decadence with all that butter and sugars used! Oh,well ~ you only live once ~~♡♡~~
ReplyDeleteEverything in moderation and yes, you do only live once.
DeleteMy family will love me forever when I make them this! lol!
ReplyDeleteAunt Bee, yay!!
DeleteShould you store the leftovers in the fridge since glaze uses milk?
ReplyDeleteI never have, it's just like any cake glaze or frosting, but you certainly can.
DeleteI ended up softening my butter in the micro wave and melted half of it. This is for the topping will this still work or too runny?
ReplyDeleteThat should work fine.
DeleteThe first time I made this cake it was amazing. The second time it all bubbled up and the cinnamon rose to the top and burned after 25 minutes in the oven. I thought I did not mix the cinnamon mixture in enough so I tried again .The third time I mixed it better and it did the same thing . Any idea what I am doing wrong.
ReplyDeleteWow! I have no idea. All your measurements were done correctly? Have you calibrated your oven temp, or used an oven thermometer to be sure your oven temp is accurate? That is the only thing I can think of to try.
DeleteCan't wait to try! Love cinnamon, cinnamon. Never enough in my rolls and they are so much work.
ReplyDeleteI love cinnamon rolls too, but this one is easier and equally yumm!
DeleteWhat a lovely idea and a great change from cinnamon rolls. Plus this recipe looks far easier than a traditional cinnamon roll so that gets my thumbs up too.
ReplyDeleteRebecca, thank you so much!! Hope you enjoy it.
DeleteHi Mary,
ReplyDeleteI am anxious to make this for my family! A question though. Initially you said this makes a large sheet pan, (which I thought would be a jelly roll size). Later you said a 9X13 cake pan. I want to use the correct size. Thank you.
9×13-inch pan. Sorry for any confusion.
DeleteWould it work as well to bake it in a metal pan?
ReplyDeleteYes it would be fine.
DeleteI have made it a couple of times now. Super duper good.
ReplyDeleteYAY that's great! TY!
DeleteThis cake is truly Amazing!! For Thanksgiving my daughter was planning on going with her friends, she changed her plans when she knew I was making this cake.
ReplyDeleteYAY!!
DeleteSuper easy recipe, made it for a church event this morning, it turned out delicious! It was still warm from the oven. Can't wait to enjoy leftovers tomorrow. Mine did need to go more like 35-37 minutes or so, just keep an eye on it after 30, imo.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
