Start the Day on a Sweet Note

Who says you only have to celebrate Thanksgiving at dinner time? Why not set the stage by starting the day with a special treat for your family...

Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

1 loaf frozen bread dough, thawed
butter
1/2 - 3/4 cup brown sugar
cinnamon
nutmeg
ground clove

Using a rolling pin, roll out the bread dough into a rectangle. Spread the dough with butter, top with brown sugar. Sprinkle seasonings over the brown sugar.

Working on the long side, begin to roll your dough, tucking in the toppings as you go.

Slice your rolls in 1" slices.

Place rolls, cut side down in a baking pan. Cover with a towel and allow to continue to rise.

Bake as directed on your dough package.

Variations:

Add nuts or raisin...or both!

Add frosting - mix 1 cup powdered sugar mixed with 1 Tablespoon milk (add more milk - 1 teaspoon at a time - to thin frosting).

Try this yummy breakfast -- and your family will Thank You!

Enjoy!
