Cinnamon Roll Pull Apart

You all know I have a love affair with cinnamon rolls.  I’m constantly trying to find new and different things to do with them.  My go-to is my homemade Clone of a Cinnabon recipe.  Honestly, it can’t be beat- but it’s time consuming.  It is at least a two hour process.

Charlie, my 3 year old son, is obsessed with the color “dark blue.”  He has taken the ‘favorite color’ thing to a whole new level. When he’s pretending to be a superhero, and I ask “Oh, are you Super Charlie?” he replies “No! I’m Dark Blue Charlie!”  He has three pair of dark blue underpants,… Continue reading Blueberry Zucchini Breakfast Cake
