  1. Easy to make, delicious to eat! We didn't wait for it to cool; skipped the icing and just ate it hot. Man was it good! This would be great on a brunch buffet; or served on a cold day with your preference of hot drink. She has given very specific directions on assembly; pay close attention to the direction to place the rolls lengthwise in the pan, as well as the pan size. This is not your large loaf pan. Also, portion out the filling carefully. You only need a little on each roll; and you don't want to run out. I highly recommend this one.
