rt). Okay now I have all of this flour, what in the heck do I do with it. So I decided to try and make something with yeast (this is a task I had not yet tackled. I'm a caterer not a baker). So I thought about what I would need in an emergency and of course the first thing that popped into my head was cinnamon rolls. One of my favorite all time treats is a CinnaBon. I went to copykat.com and found this imitation recipe there. They did not taste exactly like a Cinnabon, but they sure were delicious, especially hot out of the oven and the frosting was heavenly (I only made a half batch of the frosting and it was more then enough). I am happy that the recipe turned out, I will not be so afraid to make something involving yeast in the future. Next week I need to start trying some recipes for miniature fancy desserts for a catering job I have coming up, so if anyone knows any good recipes, please let me know.

Learning to Use My Food Storage

They were very good. Thank you!! When are you going to Yellowstone? We've been the last 2 years and we are going next year. We had a ton of fun!
I never had the courage to use yeast until I got a bread machine. Now I use it make dough (for rolls or pizza) or bread.
Those look so yummy, I'm very impressed.
