these cinnamon rolls are not only scrumptious and easy, but they hold a special place in my heart. when we got home from the hospital with bella, we were blessed with meals and goodies from lots of friends and family. some of our friends, the lovely zimmermans, brought us some *delish* goodies our first day at home. penney is an amazing cook, so we were especially excited :) among the deliciousness were these yummy cinnamon rolls that we would pop in our toaster oven to warm before popping them into our hungry-and-sleep-deprived-but-so-in-love-with-our-new-bundle bellies. the key? these are made with bisquick mix, so they are super simple. as well as delish. have i mentioned that yet?well, they are.
perfect for a saturday morning breakfast. i have two additional girlies in my home this morning from a sleepover last night and they requested these from when i made them last time :) can't wait until bella can eat them, too!
