Substitutions and Variations<\/h2>\n

The dough is super versatile and you can make dinner rolls, bread, any shape or size.<\/p>\n

You can use any type of filling like chocolate spread, nut spread, jam, date paste, dry fruits etc.<\/p>\n

Serving Suggestions<\/h2>\n

There is absolutely no time of the day when you cannot serve these delectable rolls. Breakfast, lunch, dessert, tea, coffee.<\/p>\n

It is great for kids lunch boxes too.<\/p>\n

You can skip the frosting part.<\/p>\n

You can drizzle the rolls with chocolate sauce or ganache.<\/p>\n

Storage and Make Ahead<\/h2>\n

You can make the dough a day ahead and frost on the day of serving.<\/p>\n

You can freeze the rolls, unfrosted and thaw when required. <\/p>\n

For fresher rolls, I recommend baking them foil covered in a hot oven for 10 minutes, to heat them through and through.<\/p>\n

Frosting can be made ahead as well and kept in airtight box refrigerated.<\/p>\n

Cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting needs to be refrigerated but should be served at room temperature.<\/p>\n
