Yo's Cinnamon Rolls
Bake these in the morning for an instant wake up call for anyone in your household. These cinnamon rolls get people out of bed! I used these flaky, buttery rolls to top my Mega Breakfast Cake, but theyre also perfect for as a solo dessert or brunch!

-
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the microwave.
-
In a separate bowl, stir together the remaining butter with 2/3 cup of brown sugar until it forms a paste.
-
Fill the bottom of the 12 openings in your muffin pan with 1 tablespoon of the mixture in each tin. Spread with your fingertips.
-
Mix the rest of the brown sugar with your cinnamon.
-
Roll out the first sheet of puff pastry, leaving parchment underneath. Brush melted butter across the entire surface.
-
Sprinkle half the of the cinnamon sugar mixture over the surface, leaving a 1 border along the top.
-
Roll up the pastry with the bottom edge closest to you. Use the parchment paper to help you press and roll the pastry away from you.
-
Cut off the uneven ends of the pastry with a sharp knife. Cut the roll evenly into pieces about 1 thick. Place the pieces into the muffin pan with the cinnamon sugar spiral facing up.
-
Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes, until they are golden brown. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan, and onto a lined tray to finish cooling.
Congratulations you did it!
