I grew up with these at Christmas time, although these are made with the Fathead Mozzarella Dough they are a great substitute for the original. The dough is stickier than traditional dough to work with but the taste is amazing. Subtle, sweet, cinnamon crunch all packed into one roll. Enjoy! Serving size is one roll.
