cinnamon rolls

Yesterday I decided to attempt yet another new baking experience: cinnamon rolls. I've baked with yeast only once before, so I was very wary of how they would turn out (especially since I realized halfway through dough-making that the recipe called for rapid-rise yeast instead of active-dry yeast like I had bought!). The recipe's from epicurious.com, and it even includes a really tasty cream cheese frosting/glaze.

Clytemnestra kept me entertained with the "Slumdog Millionaire" soundtrack :)

The rolls in the foreground are the ones baked in my glass baking dish. I own only one baking dish, so I baked half of the rolls on a cookie sheet, and they ended up quite burnt on the bottom. Next time I'll just have to bake half of them at a time.

Frosted and yummy and ready to be devoured
