I paired it with cream cheese frosting to have that extra kick. I will definitely be making these again :-DKatenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-34956293370819760442010-10-26T15:49:26.902-07:002010-10-26T15:49:26.902-07:00Just wanted to let everyone know that these are fa...Just wanted to let everyone know that these are fantastic! The first time I tried to make them was also the first time I ever tried making bread. They flopped because I was naive in thinking that the mixture would rise in a sunny room (albeit in the middle of winter). I made them on Monday and they looked just like Nessies pictures. The trick is to warm an oven at 50 degrees celsius for about 15 min then turn it off and put the mixture with a teatowel over it in the pre warmed oven. Also it is so very important to leave the mixture to rise for as long as you can. I kept checking on the oven and when it started to cool a little I just put it on for about 5 min at 40 degrees.melnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-32494988567410183862010-10-25T19:12:06.215-07:002010-10-25T19:12:06.215-07:00Hiya Kate, I would describe the texture of the bun...Hiya Kate, I would describe the texture of the buns as a cross between a dinner roll and croissant - more buttery than a roll but still bready and fluffy. A tip would be to cut them with a really sharpe knife and definitely let the rise for the full amounts of time. I would also use another glaze next time. Be careful that the milk mixture is not too hot before you add the yeast - it should be around the same temperature as you - too hot and the poor little yeast will die. Oh and when you are putting the sprials on to a baking tray the brown sugar will go all over the place so do that bit carefully and scoop it in your hand to catch the brown sugar cinnamon mixture if that makes sense? While the buns can be frozen and are still pretty rockin, I reckon they are at their peak deliciousness on the day they are baked so it's at all possible bake them the day you give them to your friend. Hope that helps! Feel free to ask any more questions! :)Nessie @ bakingequalslovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06290180828615367628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-62834838305586224142010-10-16T17:00:57.249-07:002010-10-16T17:00:57.249-07:00These look like they'd be fabulous, but I am a...These look like they'd be fabulous, but I am anxious to hear whether or not they turned out as well for others. A good friend of mine adores cinnamon buns and it also happens to be his birthday. I'd really like to make these but I don't want them to flop—especially if they're a present! <br /><br />Is there any way of describing the texture of the buns? Were there any cons to making this dough or changes you would make to them in the future?<br /><br />Thanks a BUNch!Katenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-31675243574824448792010-08-11T21:04:39.734-07:002010-08-11T21:04:39.734-07:00Peggy: You should definitely try them.

Otherwise.... :P<br /><br />Joanne: Yay, thanks for your comment. I am SO keen to get into more bread making. I am starting to think that a little salt in sweet stuff is the secret ingredient for wowness. Always tastes better with salt (shhh don't let doctors hear me say that!)Nessie @ bakingequalslovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06290180828615367628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2147992061427760299.post-22392423703846654162010-08-04T11:16:07.355-07:002010-08-04T11:16:07.355-07:00There is definitely something incredibly addictive...There is definitely something incredibly addictive about kneading dough and working with yeast.
