Directions
Cinnamon Buns from Heaven, From THE 150 BEST AMERICAN RECIPES When I made these, I left out half the butter and sugar in the filling, and all of the butter in the topping and they were still absolutely amazing used skim milk because that’s all I had, and light butter in the filling They were well worth making!! Add 1 1/2 cups chopped walnuts and 1 1/2 cups raisins in the filling stage if desired , Very very good I halfed the butter for the filling as well and I also made the glaze with just vanila, confectioners sugar and water I only used 2 cups of sugar They were perfect fluffy and yummy my husband and son loved them, definitely will be making these again , I truly was in heaven!
