How to Make Pumpkin-Shaped Cinnamon Rolls
- Open can and separate cinnamon rolls.
- Cut four pieces of twine in even lengths (about 13” depending on the size of the cinnamon roll)
- Grease casserole dish with butter, oil spray, or a dairy-free alternative.
- Lay the twine strands down, intersecting in a star shape on the cutting board. Each strand should overlap the others in the center.
- Place one cinnamon roll in the center of the strands. Tie strands at the top of the cinnamon roll snugly, creating a light indention in the roll. Repeat three more times to create a symmetrical shape around the cinnamon roll.
- Once all the cinnamon rolls are tied with twine, place at least 2" apart in your casserole dish.
- Follow cooking instructions on the cinnamon roll packaging.
- Once cinnamon rolls are golden brown, remove from the oven.
How to Make the Cinnamon Roll Glaze
- While the cinnamon rolls cook, soften butter and cream cheese slightly.
- Combine Liquid CoQ10, butter, vanilla, sugar and cream cheese ingredients in a mixing bowl. Whisk until smooth. (Optional: Use a fork to break up cream cheese.)
- If needed, add a splash of milk or non-dairy milk to loosen the glaze’s consistency. It shouldn't be too runny.
How to Decorate
- Give cinnamon rolls a few minutes to cool.
- Cut the twine. Remove from each cinnamon roll and throw away.
- Optional: Add a cinnamon stick to the center of each roll for presentation purposes (do not ingest)
- Drip/spread glaze over the top of the roll to your liking.
- Tear apart and enjoy!
