Up early to make something yummy for the HUBS this morning. All I have is a tube of Pillsbury Grands Flaky Supreme Rolls w/ Cinnabon. In my sleepy state I'm thinking why not impromptu sticky buns? So I did the best I could w/ what I had on hand to work with..... NOTE: These turned out WICKED GOOD. Decadent, creamy, caramel-like, nutty and buttery. If butter flavoring with all the melted butter seems over-the-top; it is!
