Preparation

Step 1

Directions:

Prep Time: 20 mins

Total Time: 20 mins

1 Unroll dough in one long rectangle and press to seal perforations.

2 Combine cinnamon and sugar and sprinkle over dough.

3 Roll up jelly roll style starting from the short end and pinch seam to seal.

4 Using a serrated knife slice into 4 equal slices. (I use unwaxed dental floss threading underneath the 'log' and then crossing the ends above the 'log'(floss makes an O around the dough, floss ends form a V) Pull ends to draw floss through to cut dough. Makes a cleaner cut.).

5 Place rolls pinched side down in ungreased muffin tin.

6 Bake at 375 for 10-12 minutes or until brown. Cool for 5 minutes then transfer to wire rack.

7 Mix powdered sugar and orange juice to make a thin glaze. Drizzle over the warm rolls and serve.
