Today Alyssa and I wanted to do something in the kitchen so we made cinnamon rolls! Here are a few pics and the recipe we used!
I thought about adding this post after we had already mixed everything together, but here we had just rolled out one part of the dough and started to add the filling.
Alyssa, hard at work.
here is the log before we cut it into rolls.
