Pillsbury products were on sale at a grocery store that I shop in so I decided to try a couple of their items. For $2 why not? But as you may have noticed from my other posts, I am not good at baking without playing around with the recipe. So in this case I made my own version of cinnamon rolls by adding candied walnuts. What you do is heat up a pan, place the walnuts in the pan (no oil necessary), cook them until they become a golden color (a couple of minutes), then add sugar and stir until the sugar is dissolved and you have candied walnuts. I reckon you can try any type of nut for this recipe.
** Cook the buns first and once you pull them out of the oven sprinkle the walnuts on top and then pour the icing on them. You may have to use a spoon or fork to spread the icing evenly.
All in all the cost for 8 cinnamon rolls with candied walnuts came to under $5 (one packet of walnuts cost me $1.99).
Compare that price with a box of Cinnabons! They look delicious!!!
Wow! Nice price tag you’ve got there! The gooeyness is irresitable and the amount of walnuts you’ve got there makes those on sale miserable. I’m licking my screen :p
