Cinnamon Roll Pumpkins

Servings 2 Rolls

Equipment

  • Baking Dish
  • Bakers Twine
  • Food Dye

Ingredients
  

  • 1 Can Cinnamon Roll Dough

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350° (or follow baking temperature on your recipe or can) and grease a baking dish.
  • Remove your dough from the can in stacks of two (try to keep the stack together when they come out so they're essentially one piece of dough).
  • Trim a 1-2inch piece of dough off of one of the rolls and set aside to use for the stems.
  • Take your bakers twine and wrap around your dough, crossing over the twine as you go until you have 8 equal sections. Tie off right in the top center of the rolls.
  • Cut and shape your extra piece of dough to look like small stems and add to baking sheet.
  • Bake for about 25 minutes (or when cooked through). The stems will bake much quicker, so remove them when cooked through so they don't burn (approximately 15 minutes).
  • When you remove the buns from the oven, create an indent in the center of the rolls using a blunt object (like the handle end of a butter knife). You'll want to do this while they're fresh from the oven before they set, but be careful as they'll be hot!
  • While buns cool, mix icing with a drop of red and a drop of yellow food coloring and mix well until it looks orange.
  • Once cooled, cut bakers twin and remove all twine from the rolls.
  • Cover buns with icing, and before icing is set place your stem in the center of each roll.
