How Do You Serve a Giant Cinnamon Roll?

Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Spray large cookie sheet with cooking spray. Separate dough into 5 rolls.
  • 2
    Place 1 roll in center of cookie sheet. Unroll remaining 4 rolls into long strips of dough. Loosely coil each strip around roll, cinnamon side in, forming giant cinnamon roll (be sure to replace any cinnamon that falls off).
  • 3
    Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until center is thoroughly baked and edge is deep golden brown. Cool 5 minutes.
  • 4
    Meanwhile, remove cover from icing; microwave on Medium (50%) 15 seconds. Drizzle icing over warm cinnamon roll. Cut into 6 wedges; serve warm.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Top the warm-from-the-oven roll with fresh berries before drizzling with the icing if you like.
  • tip 2
    Clean up will be easy when you line your cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper before building your roll.
  • tip 3
    For the ultimate wow factor, serve this giant cinnamon roll in one piece. Cut into wedges to serve, or allow guests to pull strips of dough straight from the roll.
  • tip 4
    For a chocolaty twist, try our 3-Ingredient Giant Hot Cocoa Cinnamon Roll.
  • tip 5
    Serve wedges of the giant roll using a cake server, so you don’t miss lifting the entire wedge all in one beautiful piece.
