And then your little guy was born with a cinnamon roll on his head! My daughter, upon learning I was pregnant, asked if it could be a kitty. “I want it be a kitty please.” My son, along with having a kitty cry as a newborn (they all do), at age 4 still loves crawling around the house meowing! The power we have…

I made these! They ROCK! But the second rise does take absolutely forever. I hoped they’d rise in the fridge overnight. They didn’t. So for breakfast I made the “leftover” ones that hadn’t fit in my baking pan. Really tasty, but without the rise. About 1.5 hours later, made the rest. WONDERFUL

And I made your graham crackers last week, so now I get to try them with some cream cheese frosting.

Excellent ! Cream Cheese is not available in the French Alps so I used Mascarpone !

I made this TWICE last weekend. I halved the bun recipe, but kept the glaze amount the same. Good lord. Insanely good. I am getting ready to whip up another batch tonight!

Made it a second time (yes, already- they were that good!) and had problems with my dough, like 1064’s comment says. Wouldn’t rise for it’s life. Same yeast; same kitchen, same ingredients. I think the seceret is adding the right amount of flour and making sure that the milk/butter recipe is warm enough. Rise, my dough-ling, rise!!! Bwahaha!!! :-)

Yay, Deb! This is my 3rd SK recipe and by far the best. The dough was incredible; the filling unmatchable. Add some teeny pecans and honey for an extra zing, and you’ll see why I ate these until I was sick. :-) Very delicious! And the part about the cows coming home; huh! Who wouldda thunk?

It sounds like a yeast issue…

As soon as I read “Look what we baked!,” I squealed “AAAAAAH! Look!!!” at my husband; we have two little ones already, so we know the joys! I have Smittenkitchen as my home page, so every day, my husband hears about what you’re/I’m making now! I’m so happy for you both, and just as we (still) do, you and your husband will say to each other, “we made him,” even when all he’s doing is breathing. Congratulations!
