Cinnamon rolls! yum



Making Cinnamon rolls is actually a lot easier then you may think. All you have to do is buy one package of Pilsbury reduced fat crescent roll refrigerated dough. Then roll out the dough so that it is the size of a regular piece of computer paper (don't worry if you think you don't have enough - it is suppossed to roll out very thin) use a little flour on the table and on your rolling pin. Next, spray canola oil, or butter spray on the surface of your dough (about 16 sprays). Then, in a seperate bowl mix filling:
1/4 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. splenda
1 tbsp. teaspoon cinnamon

Then from this mixture sprinkle it out amongst your dough!
Also, sprinkle pecan pieces all over (about 12 pecans broken up into little pieces)

Now, if you want to add more deliciousness to your cinnamon roll here is the
easy icing recipe to go on top of your rolls!
1/2 c. fat free cool whip-thawed
6tbsp. "1/3 the fat- Philly cream cheese" (or it is also yummy to use maple-cream cheese- which is in my earlier cream cheese post- check it out!)
1 tblsp. Splenda
Mix it up!

Then cook on 300 degrees for 10-15 minutes, and top with icing when they come out!
