​This year we hosted some of our family over Christmas and everyone pitched in to help with meals.  These pictures are from the night that we all made homemade pasta.

​One afternoon, my mom helped the kids make nut roll also.

​I served the nut roll for breakfast along with some cinnamon rolls.  I like to serve these cinnamon rolls when we have overnight guests because I can put them together ahead of time - pull them out of the freezer and put them right into the oven - FROZEN!  There is no waiting for the dough to rise or getting the counter all covered with flour while trying to entertain guests.

​Freezer Cinnamon Rolls
Dough                                                  Filling
3/4 cup buttermilk                             1 Tablespoon butter, melted
6 Tablespoons butter, melted          3/4 cup brown sugar
3 eggs                                                    2 teaspoons cinnamon
4 1/4 cups flour                                   1/4 teaspoon cloves
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/2 teaspoons yeast                         Icing
1 1/4 teaspoons salt                            1 1/2 ounces cream cheese
                                                                 3 Tablespoons buttermilk
                                                                 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Add buttermilk and knead with dough hook.  Knead until smooth.  Place in greased bowl, cover and let rise 2-2 1/2 hours.
Butter a 9x13 pan.  Mix brown sugar, cinnamon, cloves and salt.

Roll dough to 12x16 rectangle.  Brush dough with melted butter and sprinkle with filling ingredients.
​Roll to a cylinder and stretch to 18”.

​Slice into 12 even slices and arrange in pan.   Wrap dish with plastic wrap and then cover with foil and freeze.  ​I like to write the baking instruction on the foil before I put it in the freezer so that I don't have to look up my recipe again when I am ready to bake them.  

Remove from freezer, remove plastic wrap and rewrap dish with foil.  Bake 20 minutes.  Remove foil  and bake another 30 minutes.

​Frosting:  Flip rolls immediately onto rack and let cool 5 minutes.  Whisk together cream cheese and buttermilk.  Stir in powdered sugar and whisk until smooth.  
Drizzle over rolls.

Of course if you don't want to bother with cooking breakfast - there's always Waffle House.  Yes - that is really a picture of me in a Waffle House.

Ciao!
