Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

    Correction: The butter in the filing should be melted, and the butter in the icing should be room temperature.

    Lizzy made these for Christmas morning. Because the recipe wasn’t enormously clear (which she complained about) we didn’t have enough time to do the full 48 hour raise that we would have wanted to make things easier for Christmas Day (one for the dough and one for the buns). Still, they were delicious and not too sweet for my taste. Try again to see if poofier with two overnights. (Girls wanted them to be more cinnamony).

    I loved this recipe--the dough was soft but easy to work with when cold. Turned out super soft and delicious. Would make again.

    rave reviews from the family! very soft. I took kieffer's suggestion to put half the frosting on while the rolls were very warm and the other half closer to serving.

    The dough recipe is nice, but not my favorite. It is very light and fluffy. My centers also rose dramatically. The cream cheese icing is great.

    This is a good cinnamon bun recipe but not my favorite. I am not a big fan of the tang from the buttermilk.

    These are really good: light, fluffy dough, good cinnamon flavour and a pleasant tang from both the dough and icing. The level of sweetness can be adjusted with the amount of icing applied. I used 1/4 of the recipe and let everyone help themselves to extra. The instructions say to roll into a tight cylinder but I think I may have overdone this as the centres popped quite dramatically during baking. Ugly but still delicious!

    Dough was refrigerated over night. Made a nice soft roll with just the right amount of cinnamon. My family loved them.
