Death by Cinnamon Buns





Someone, I think it was Jen in Nyack, NY, got me thinking about my grandmother's cinnamon buns. Actually I was sort of obsessed for a few days. So I found this recipe and made it. BUT, I halved the recipe (6 cups of flower for 12 buns?! I don't think so) and then eliminated the milk and only used 1/2 cup butter total, instead of the recommended 1 1/2 cups. Turned out pretty good but not as good as my grandmother's. I'm sure she did use the full 1 1/2 cups of butter. She had that look about her.

These look amazing and good for you for lightening them up a little! You can always add butter after baking right?! ;-)
