This year was a little different. We were chatting away while we added ingredients and when it came time to combine the two it was obvious there was a problem. Hmmm, what's wrong with the dough, it's all liquidy and not pulling away from the bowl? Ahhh! With much discussion we realize that we made the following mistakes:
1 cup of brown sugar was added that was meant for the cinnamon filling
1/2 c. of butter was added instead of 1/4 c.
Instead of dumping it out we go ahead and make them for a comparison to the real thing. We then made another batch, this time double checking our measurements and not chatting as much. The messed up version did not rise at all but we went ahead and baked them with our good batch. This morning Tanner and Sydney tried one of each and said the messed up one "wasn't too bad".

Can you tell the good from the bad?

What a fun post. I can smell those cinnamon rolls from here. Don’t throw away any of the bad ones cause you know your Dad will eat them and think they are perfect. :) Love all the pictures! So cute. What a wonderfully fun tradition! Perfect for conference weekend.
PS ~ I recognized that apron the minute I saw it. :)
