Snow Day Indulgence

We have a snow day today! I decided that celebratory cinnamon buns were in order, but I didn't want to wait for a few hours for the dough to rise. I wanted cinnamon buns for breakfast, dang it! I did some quick looking around, and found a quick cinnamon buns recipe in the quickbreads section of my America's Test Kitchen cookbook. They took under an hour from start to finish and only made 8 rolls (a definite bonus if you're stuck at home with just the two of you and the landlords upstairs)!

The recipe called for cloves as well as cinnamon, which added nice colour to the recipe. I think, if I make these again, that I will reduce the sugar amounts for the filling and add pecans and/or raisins or apples.


The finished product! They tasted heavenly with the (VERY liberally applied) cream cheese glaze. We took them upstairs and had a little party with our landlords. Yum!
