Made this today…VERY good. 25 min was a little long in my oven, but I know it can vary. I also halved the recipe and it made about 12 rolls, which was the perfect amount. Will make them again…thanks for sharing this recipe!

These are delicious! I had an old favorite cinnamon roll recipe but decided to try this one because the picture looked so good! This is my new recipe! These bake up so soft and tender and the frosting is extra tasty!

Delicious! Made them last night and ate them this morning. The rolls are so tender and I love the caramel frosting! I didn’t have time to let it rise for an hour and a 1/2 on the second rise so I just did a 1/2 hour, but they turned out just fine anyways. Incredible!

Made these this afternoon and couldn’t wait to try them after smelling my kitchen while they cooked. They did not disappoint, they were delicious! I used leftover mashed potatoes, and I only let them rise 1 hour on the 2nd rising. The icing was wonderful – love that caramel flavor. The filling does not make as much as the filling for PW’s rolls, I like them with lots of gooey insides, so I doubled that part and thought it was perfect . Thanks for a great recipe.

Made these the first time this weekend for our “after the Homecoming Dance” party. The kids loved them. Afterwards my husband sat down to eat one and his comment, verbatim, was “OMG, there’s absolutely nothing about this that’s cardiologist approved!” I think that about sums it up!
On a side note, I didn’t feel like rolling out dough at 2:30 in the morning, so I sprinkled some flour on a large piece of parchment and then floured my hands well and just patted them out into a large rectangle. It worked like a charm! I’ll do it this again for sure! I iced my rolls with a simple glaze of powdered sugar, vanilla, and evaporated milk. They disappeared in the blink of an eye!

These are absolutely wonderful! They are so soft and tender! I love the caramel frosting on them too! This is the second time I’ve made these. I have different cinnamon bun recipe that I use, but this one replaces it now! Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!

These were AWESOME! My husband and father in law both went nuts for them! I will be making these again and again!

Best cinnamon roll recipe I’ve tried!! We loved these. The dough was perfect and the caramel icing was delicious. I added a little more filling than the recipe called for but didn’t change anything else. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

These rolls are now by far my favorite sweet treat. They are time consuming to make, but that just heightens the anticipation. They were well worth the wait!

Ooh. This sounds yummy! For the mashed potatoes, I’m assuming just plain mashed by itself, without added butter, cream, etc?

Can’t wait to try these! Caramel frosting–genius!

The home made potatoes: Mashed with butter and milk or just mashed potatoes alone…just asking..
Juanita on 9.23.2010
I always just use leftover homeade mashed potatoes which I always make with milk, salt,butter, and sour cream and/or cream cheese. Very fattening I’m sure but oh so good!

Stupid question… the type of potatoes doesn’t matter right? I mean it can be red potatoes, yukon golds; or regular bakers right?
Juanita on 9.23.2010
I usually use idaho potatoes. I’ve also used russet I believe and I’m pretty sure I’ve used the red. I usually just use whatever I happen to have on hand. I don’t think it really should matter.

Oh these sound so wonderful. Bad idea looking at recipes late in the evening! Can’t wait to try these. Thanks for sharing!

I’m curious what the mash potatoes do for the dough. Do they make it more moist? Or fluffy? Or…? Very intriguing.
As often as I’ve been to Amish areas I’ve never had one to know the difference.
Thanks

My dough is rising right now! Super excited!
