How to Make Cinnamon Puff Pastry Rolls

Preheat oven to 400° F. Line baking tray with parchment paper or silicone baking mat and set aside.

Unfold one sheet of puff pastry onto a clean lightly floured work surface. Spread 1/4 cup of brown sugar in a thin even layer over pastry. Press down lightly. Sprinkle with cinnamon (as much or as little as you’d like). Roll up and cut into 8 equal pieces with a sharp knife. Place onto the prepared baking sheet cut side up. Repeat with remaining sheet of puff pastry.

Bake for 15-20 minutes or until puffed and golden brown.

Simple Icing

This simple icing is the perfect topping to these even easier Cinnamon Rolls.

1. For the icing – Using an electric mixer or just a whisk, mix powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and half & half together in a small bowl until runny yet slightly thick; when you drizzle the icing back into the bowl, it should hold its shape briefly before falling back into the rest of it. If the icing is runny, add more powdered sugar. If it’s too thick, add in more half & half.
2. Drizzle icing over warm rolls and serve immediately.

Leftovers

Any leftover cinnamon rolls you have can be kept in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Just be sure to let them cool to room temperature before storing. To reheat, simply heat through in the microwave or turn your oven to 350° F and heat through that way.
