Halloween cinnamon rolls

Ingredients:

 1 can (11 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing 

 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

 1 tablespoon sugar

 1/4 cup butter, softened

 Yellow and red food color

 Cooking instructions: 

 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease the bottom and sides of an 8×4-inch loaf pan with shortening or cooking spray. In a small bowl, stir together ground cinnamon and sugar; set aside.

 2. Remove rolls from a can; do not unroll. With a serrated knife, cut the roll in half crosswise. Cut each half into six pieces for a total of 12 pieces. Arrange pieces in the pan, placing one piece in the center of each quadrant and two pieces along each side of the pan, dividing equally (8 pieces will be on the bottom layer, and four pieces will be on the top layer). Sprinkle reserved cinnamon-sugar mixture over rolls. Press the dough gently into the pan with floured hands, so all rolls are coated with the mixture.

 3. Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown and no longer doughy in the center. Cool in pan for 5 minutes; remove to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.

 4. In a small bowl beat butter with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy; gradually add enough yellow food to make light orange buttercream icing (you may have some icing left over).5 Spread over cooled rolls using a small offset spat

All you need is some basic ingredients that you probably already have in your pantry, and in just a few minutes, you’ll have a tray of deliciousness that’s sure to please both kids and adults alike.

Once everything is combined, use a spoon or your hands to press the mixture into an 8×8-inch baking dish. Then let the mixture cool for about 15 minutes before cutting it into squares. You can use cookie cutters to cut out fun shapes to get creative. Whatever you do, enjoy!

Candy apples
