Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls
If you can pass by a Cinnabon Shop in the mall without craving one of these — you have more willpower than I do. The smell of these cooking — which seems to spread throughout the entire wing of the mall — must rank as one of the best “ad campaigns” in the history of marketing.
Make these this weekend for the family or save them for a special occasion or trip. I made them on my “morning to do breakfast” on our last trip to the Smokey Mountains with “the Gang” and had my buddies climbing over each other to get to the table.

The ingredient list doesn’t mentioned margarine, but the instructions do. That’s a bit confusing.

Hey. Thank you for the comment.
Originally we had the phrase “Butter or Margarine” in many of our recipes. Being from the South, we have always known that butter tasted better, but recent studies have also shown what we have long suspected – that it is actually better for you than margarine. So during our last update, we removed most of the margarine references and just went with butter where either would work. We did it in the “ingredients” but missed it in the “directions.” Thanks for the heads up – it is fixed now.

Is the dough suppose to be extremely sticky? I tried 7 cups of flour which helped but it still was sticky, but they tasted wonderful. I am not use to working with a sticky dough. I have seen a very similar recipe on another sight that says 8 cups of flour. Would I still get the same delicious results with 8 cups?
June 25, 2021 @ 1:13 pm
Bernadette, Yes, the flour is very sticky. We are glad that they tasted good – so it sounds like you can work with sticky flour after all. 😉 But, if you like, try 8 cups. We haven’t tried that many – but it doesn’t seem like it would “break” the recipe. Let us know please what results you have. Thanks, James

Horrible recipe. The “dough” was extremely wet and sticky even after adding 7 c. flour instead of 6. It was like a blob to lift up and put into a bowl to rise. Stayed sticky after two risings. When I took it out of the bowl to roll out it was a floppy mess. Couldn’t roll it out without it sticking to a well floured surface. Impossible to roll up and then cut. Will never use this recipe again.

Horrible recipe. Dough was way too sticky even after adding an additional cup of flour. Could not roll out because of stickiness and not even a dough, rather a gooey, wet, sticky mess. Wasted the ingredients and had to throw it out. Save yourself $ and trouble and avoid.
