Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 (13 oz) can Pillsbury Flaky Cinnamon Rolls
- Sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- Open the dough: Carefully open the can of cinnamon rolls and divide the rolls by separating them gently.
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready when you’re done preparing the rolls.
- Shape the rolls: Unroll each cinnamon roll, leaving one end still coiled. Then coil the other end so you have two equal coils on each piece of dough.
- Create the heart shape: Slightly stretch the dough in the middle section between the coils, then pinch the center firmly to bring the two coils together forming a heart shape.
- Prepare for baking: Place the shaped cinnamon rolls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, allowing space between each roll for expansion.
- Bake: Bake the rolls in the preheated oven according to the package instructions, typically around 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.
- Cool down: Remove from the oven and place the rolls on a wire rack to cool slightly.
- Add finishing touches: Drizzle the included icing over the heart-shaped cinnamon rolls and decorate with sprinkles if desired for a bright, festive look.
Notes
- You can use any brand of flaky cinnamon rolls if Pillsbury is unavailable.
- Ensure not to over-stretch the dough to avoid tearing while shaping.
- Sprinkles are optional but add a fun, colorful touch especially for celebrations like Valentine’s Day.
- Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
