Urghh... Not for me, I'm afraid!
Way too "bready", without even the character of a decent Danish.
Now, the "Olde West" brand sold at fair time - *that's* a cinnamon roll!
A lightly sweetened, almost crunchy dough, like a rugalach, packed with
butter, brown sugar, nuts, and tons of cinnamon. And instead of that
overly sweet icing Cinnabon uses, they will gladly scrape up a heart
stopping pile of carmelized extra filling!
