Clone of a Cinnabon

If you have been reading my previous posts you may have noticed a small obsession I have with Allrecipes.com I mean seriously every recipe you could ever want is on this one site. I mean don’t get me wrong I LOVE my cookbooks, recipe magazines and the classic family “hand me downs”, but the majority of my recipes come from this one huge internet site. This is one of their most popular recipes, with over 160,000 votes and still a 5 star rating! And just in case you are wondering, it really does taste like a cinnabon, just make sure you don’t over cook it!
