Valentine Cinnamon Rolls
     These Valentine Cinnamon Rolls are definitely a work of love!

     Maddy first had the idea to make pink, heart shaped cinnamon rolls.  She wanted to make them quick and easy, therefore, she didn't want to use yeast.  After 3 tries, I think she got them just about perfect!  
Valentine Cinnamon Rolls
     To make the dough of these cinnamon rolls pink, she added regular pink liquid food coloring. 
​​    Getting the heart shape was the most difficult task.  First she tried just shaping them like hearts in the pan.  That didn't work.  Then I suggested she tried a ball of foil to make the indent between the two bumps.  That didn't work either.  The dough simply expanded around the foil.  Alicia came up with the idea that worked the best!  Instead of making one big roll of dough with the filling inside, she suggested rolling the dough from either side, meeting in the middle.  That resulted in two spirals that created a natural heart shape when sliced. Genius! The next try was going to be purchasing heart shaped cupcake pans, but we avoided that!
      The frosting for these rolls is made with cream cheese, orange juice and orange zest, along with the confectioners sugar.  Maddy piped the frosting into a heart shape to help enhance the Valentine look.  The slight orange taste of the frosting, blending with the cinnamon is delicious!  Of course, nothing would be complete around here with out some cute sprinkles! 
The dough is somewhat soft, but you knead it slightly in the flour on the board and it will roll out nicely, making a tender cinnamon roll.
