Used your sweet dough recipe for these buns. I used 1 cup brown sugar, 1/2 white. Didn't melt the butter, just let it soften and smeared it over. I got 12 big rolls out of it.

i just devoured 2 straight from the oven. im rating both the sweet dough and the cinnamon buns. ive had problems with making soft dough for cinnamon buns but this was soft and gooey. my only change: i mixed both regular and light brown sugar (75% white; 25% brown). this tastes amazing for the fat and calorie content. soo similar to the famous cinnabon without the hefty 600-700 calorie load! my oven is strong so it actually cooked in half the time (15 minutes). thanks for such a great recipe. exactly what ive been looking for/

Reviewed for ZWT III. Well, these were fabulous! Easy to make - I made fresh sweet dough for them, and they were a BIG HIT with the whole family. Put it this way, I made them at 9pm last night and by 4pm today they are all finished! My 6 1/2 month old especially thinks they're fantastic and kept helping herself...

Made for ZWT III. These were absolutely fantastic. I used chopped pecans and followed the recipe exactly. I will be making these often. Thanks for the great recipe Rita!

These were great! I used your sweet dough recipe and it was nice and fluffy! The only thing I did differently was I set my cookie time for 35 minutes and mine were done when there was still 18 minutes left on the cookie timer! Other than that, this recipe was great! Thanks for it Rita L!
