Short-Cut Cinnamon Rolls

The boys were happy to come in to engulf these cinnamon rolls after several hours of pushing snow off their hockey rink (AKA the pond) the other afternoon. The house smelled so warm and delicious while these were baking . . .

Short-Cut Cinnamon Rolls

12 frozen dinner rolls, slightly thawed (about an hour in a warm place)
1/4 C. melted butter
1/2 C. white or brown sugar (I used Splenda.)
2 tsp. cinnamon

Combine sugar and cinnamon. Form each roll into a 6"-8" rope and roll into a coil, tucking the tail underneath. Place each coil in the melted butter and then roll in sugar mixture. Spray large cookie sheet lightly with cooking spray. Space buns evenly over the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 45 minutes). Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
