What does a mommy do when it is snowing (6 inches), blowing, and subzero temperatures? The children's school is cancelled and it is too cold to go sledding? Why, make cinnamon rolls of course.
At this moment I'm trying to think of some redeeming feature of these delectable, scrumptious, and mouth watering marvels. Hmmm... well, there are eggs in them! (Plus butter and sugar...and ah... did I mention butter and ah...sugar?) Oh yeah, pecans too! Yes, eggs and pecans. Two great and nutritious ingredients. (smile).
The photo was taken right after the rolls were taken out of the oven. The icing (more butter and sugar) gets drizzled right before eating. Indeed, these rolls are bombs. Bombs of love, sugar and yumminess.
