Hey y'all...hope your weekend is off to a great start. It' beginning to look or should I say "smell" like Christmas. I've been reminded lately by my sweet Grandson Davin to keep things simple. It really brought me to reality. I for one always try to make a handmade gift...bake from scratch then I wonder why I'm so stressed. As I've aged a bit I've realized I just can't do it all anymore. Maybe that's why he's been telling me to keep things simple :-) Actually I'm blessed to have a grandson that loves the simple traditions. Well in honor of his wishes I recently remembered the old Classic Christmas wreath made from Pillsbury Cinnamon rolls. Seriously besides the awesome smell while baking...you can't get any more easier for a festive Christmas Breakfast morning. I wanted to post this because I for one forgot about this fun recipe. It's definately a simple classic but you can alway's fancy it up to your family's traditions. I did decorate mine with the "red hots" which can be hard to find so any candy would work or pipe some decor with frosting. I used the frosting that came with the rolls but placed in a plastic bag and added a 1/4 tsp. of milk to thin for piping. I'm enjoying the classic christmas memories and I hope this will help y'all with some last minute fun & easy baking. It' also a great gift to make and give on a decoratie plate. Tell them to keep the plate too. A win in my book! So koodos to my grandson for telling me to keep it simple. I just might keep things more simple in the New year! Check back soon for some more fun & easy Holiday recipes. Enjoy!

Here's all you need...
* Pillsbury cinnamon rolls (8 count)
* 1/2 tsp. milk
* Red hots (opt. but festive)
* Bundt pan
* Pinch of humor :-) always a must in my kitchen!
Here's all you do...
* Preheat oven as directed on rolls. Spray bundt pan w/baking spray. I used Pam w/flour.
* Place cinnamon rolls in pan with cinnamon side up & edges touching.
* Bake as directed on can but ovens vary so check to make sure complety cooked. The good old "toothpick check" :-)
* Let cool slighlty then carefully invert rolls on one pan then invert again on your serving plate. This technique helps to prevent rolls breaking when flipped.
Tip...if your rolls separate just glue back with a little frosting on edges. Nobody will notice :-)
Decorating...
Great time to get the kiddos involved too.
* Remove frosting that came in can and place in a ziplock bag.
* Add about a 1/2 tsp. of milk...use fingers to blend while in bag.
* Squeeze the frosting to one end...twist and make a small snip at corner.
* Drizzle over wreath as pictured or get creative and have fun!
* Decorate as desired and enjoy.
Your family will love waking up to the smell of cinnamon rolls too.
Talk soon,
Cat
