Ingredients

  • 2 frozen dinner rolls such as Rhodes
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon butter melted
  • 1/2 teaspoon packed brown sugar

Instructions

  • Place rolls on a plate and cover loosely with plastic wrap. Allow to thaw for about 2 hours (don’t let them rise, just let them defrost). Cut each roll into 6 pieces.
  • Spray an oven safe container or ramekin (mine was a 7 ounce ramekin) with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Stir together granulated sugar and cinnamon. Roll each piece of dough in the cinnamon sugar and place in the ramekin. Stir melted butter and brown sugar, pour over dough.
  • You now have two options: one, let it sit at room temperature for about one hour, then continue to the next step to bake. Or two, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight.
  • When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350°F. Remove ramekin from the refrigerator and let come to room temperature while the oven preheats. Bake for 15-18 minutes, until the dough is cooked through. Cool slightly before eating.
