Bisquick Cinnamon Rolls

 Tyler Johnson says:
This is a great recipe considering it's very easy to make and the items used to make it are usually in every household. However, the amounts of time for baking and measurements of confections' sugar plus water are incorrect.

First, the cinnamon rolls actually only take 10 minutes to bake. And, I cut them much wider than 1 inch intervals, so you might want to watch your rolls while they are baking.

Second, 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar and 2 teaspoons of water are not nearly enough, unless you would like dime sized drops of glaze on each roll. It's best to actually quadruple the amounts need. So, 1 cup confectioners' sugar, and 8 teaspoons of warm water.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention that 2 tablespoons of melted butter is not nearly enough. Two was only enough to spread over half of the dough, so I would suggest doubling that as well.

Otherwise, this is a great recipe and the rolls are very tasty!

Thank you very much. The recipe used to be on the box. It's gone now, unfortunately.

You saved the day!

Usually when recipes disappear from boxes you can call the customer service number and they will send it to you. Another option, since Bisquick is a Betty Crocker product, you might be able to find this recipe in a BC cookbook. I have two that I bought many years ago, and the same recipe is in both.

My family loves these! Only recommendation is that you roll wider or you cook longer if you have gas stove.... But still the best!!!!

 MitchL (California) says:
These are great. I changed the recipe a little, and the dough was extremely moist after baking. You may think it's still sticky when trying to roll it out, but it'll be perfect. When baking these, you'll want a slight golden brown on top.

DOUGH ADJUSTMENTS
2-3 Tbsp of Butter
1 cup of Milk (instead of 3/4 a cup)
3 & 1/4 cups of Bisquick (instead of 3 cups)
1/4 cup of sugar
1 egg
Baking at 350°F for 20 minutes
Cut the rolls using floss. Slide floss underneath the rolled up dough, circle around the dough, and pull.

GLAZE ADJUSTMENTS
3/4 Tbsp of vanilla
4 Tbsp of melted butter
3/4 cups of sugar
4 tsp of cinnamon

Enjoy!

I used MitchL's dough adjustment and buttered my baking dish. Before baking I sprinkled 1/2 cup of crushed pecans on top and for the glaze 1c powdered sugar, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1 tsp. cinnamon and 4 tbsp. water. Pour over the top while hot and let soak in for 15 minutes. And serve.

Simple, yummy recipe. I cook dairy free due to allergies. I added one egg, and 2 tbsp tofutti "sour cream" based on reviews I read elsewhere of the same recipe. For the icing I added 2 tbsp tofutti "cream cheese" and a splash of vanilla.

I adjusted this a bit, used gluten free wheat flour, soy milk....oh wait. No I didn't. I used a quick cream cheese frosting recipe instead of confectioner's glaze to fatten it up with flavor.

I just finished eating my second cinnamon roll. This recipe is delicious and so easy!! I highly recommend this recipe! I did double the glaze and used double the melted butter. :)

I have made these now twice. The first ones came out ok even though trying to cook with my 4 year old daughter in and out of the kitchen... I had forgot the egg. Ooops NOT! They turned out fine. This new batch is still baking (and it has the egg LOL) I have cut them into rolls both times. easier to grab and go for a busy Mom on the run. Enjoy.

A great basic recipe. I'd made this before following the recipe and instructions exactly and wasn't too impressed with the results.. it was bland and tasted too much like pancakes with a little cinnamon and sugar . Well I found myself craving cinnamon rolls again and used this recipe as a base.

I substituted the milk with vanilla soy milk, just because I thought it'd be good and add a nice vanilla flavor, which it did ;)

I added about a tablespoon of butter to the dough mixture and also added in some sugar and cinnamon too. I increased the amount of butter you use to spread by 2 tablespoons and added extra cinnamon and sugar as well. Rolled it up, spread some butter on top of the roll then cut it at 1in intervals.. shaped it in to a crescent and topped it with some more cinnamon and sugar, baked for about 17 or 18 minutes at 350°F then topped it with about 1 cup off powdered sugar mixed with about 5 tablespoons of water and oooh myyy was it good! Everyone in the house ate about 3 rolls and raved about how delicious it was! My husband said they were the best he's ever had, no lie! Next time maybe I'll add in some cranberries and make a cream cheese frosting ;)
