It’s my birthday, and tradition in my office is to bring in dounts, brownies, or other baked goods. I try to be a little different than the predictable Panera bagels or Dunkin Donuts. Somehow I got myself into the mood for cinnamon rolls. I spent some time on-line looking for the perfect recipe. I wanted to do most of the prep the night before and just pop the rolls into the oven in the morning while I got dressed for work.
I came across this recipe from Alton Brown on the Food Network web site. I am a big fan on Alton and have made several of his recipes. They always turn out very good. He is a very precise cook with true attention to detail. I have found that if you follow his directions that the results will most certainly be spectacular.
This recipe was amazing. I can honestly say that these are the best cinnamon rolls that I have ever tasted. They beat Cinnabon and local Amish bakeries hands-down. The dough raised beautifully and had a lightest texture. There was the perfect proportion of cinnamon sugar and raised dough. The cream cheese made the icing creamy and smooth. It oozed over the rolls and made them a delightful sticky delicious mess.
I know this will now be my standard recipe for cinnamon rolls. The technique lends itself well to breakfast for overnight guests. It was nice to get the "real" work done in the evening and to finish them off with just a little effort in the morning. Job well done, Alton!

My husband’s best friend is in LOVE with Alton. (He’s married, but if he wasn’t he might propose to Alton. HA.)
Overnight rolls sound great. You don’t have to get up as early! Ha.

Hi Tom – Tom here, the Berly Edible blogger. Through some personal issues, I have not had time to devote to this blog. I actually have a plan to get it back on track with hundreds of recipes I have collected and authored over the years. I hope to have it up and running again in the next few months. Thanks for letting me know someone is actually reading it.
