Cinnamon Roll Cake
October 18, 2009 at 11:16 PM Tonight my sister and I made cinnamon roll cake. It's absolutely delicious and therefore very bad for you.
We used a really old recipe we found in a cook book that looked like it survived the nuclear Holocaust. Rather than write the recipe I just took a picture of it. Ariel wouldn't do it justice.
Use that recipe for the dough and then let it rise for 2 hours. Then roll it out flat, make sure to use lots of flour since it is a sticky dough. Once rolled into a long rectangle lightly coat it with butter. Then sprinkle on cinnamon and sugar. In a ziploc bag smash your favorite nuts. We used pecans. Sprinkle pecans on as well. Then we poured on chocolate chips too, because hell why not? Carefully roll it up into a look tube. Turn the tube into a circle then cut openings around it. Pre-heat oven to 375. Place on greased cooking sheet and cook for 30 min.
Let cool and then ice. We used a simple butter, powedered sugar, vanilla, milk icing recipe. Melt half a stick of butter, add teaspoon of vanilla and mix. And 1-2 cups powedered sugar and enough milk to get the thickness you want. For a glaze probably 1-2 table spoons.
