Servings: 5 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 (17.5 ounce) can Pillsbury Grands! Cinnamon Rolls with icing (or 12.4 oz cinnamon rolls, see notes)
- sprinkles colored sugar, or small candies
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Unroll each cinnamon roll into a long strip (see notes if using regular cinnamon rolls).
- Starting at the top, fold the strip back and forth in shorter sections to create a triangle “tree” shape that is narrow at the top and wider at the bottom. Place each shaped tree onto the baking sheet.
- Bake for 13-18 minutes, until golden.
- Transfer to a cooling rack and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
- Drizzle trees with provided icing and decorate with the sprinkles.
Notes
*Only have regular Pillsbury cinnamon rolls? Don’t worry if your cinnamon rolls won’t unroll — just follow the swirl on top and cut along it to make a spiral and unroll!
If your trees start to lose their shape, secure them with toothpicks while they bake. Just be sure to pull the toothpicks out before serving!
