Mini Cheater Cinnamon Rolls

  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Spray mini muffin tins with cooking spray and set aside (I got 20 mini rolls).
  2. In a small bowl mix the sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
  3. Roll out half of the dough (4 triangles) on a piece of parchment (for easier clean up) and pinch the seams together then flip over and pinch the same seams together on the other side. Using a rolling pin, roll the dough into a triangle that is a little bigger than the original size (about 1-1/2 times as big) and 1/4" thick.
  4. Spread half of the butter on the dough and sprinkle with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture until well coated, pressing lightly so the mixture really sticks to the butter.
  5. Starting with the wide side roll the dough up tightly into a log. Then cut it into 8-10 equal slices. Place each slice on it's side in the prepared mini muffin tin as you go.
  6. Repeat with the second half of the dough and the remaining filling ingredients. Bake for 12 - 14 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
  7. Remove cinnamon rolls from the pan as soon as you pull them out of the oven and place on a cooling rack (I used a spoon to "scoop" the rolls out of each tin). While the cinnamon rolls are cooling make the icing.
  8. Place the powdered sugar in a bowl and add the vanilla and start with 2 teaspoons of milk. Whisk the icing adding 1 teaspoon of milk at a time until the desired consistency is achieved. Using a spoon drizzle the icing over the rolls while still warm.
  9. Recipe makes 20 mini rolls.
  10. Enjoy!
