Heart Shaped Cinnamon Rolls for Valentine’s Day

Heart Shaped Cinnamon Rolls

We’ve been getting excited for Valentine’s Day around my house.  And since we’ve been eating mostly really healthy since the New Year, my family was extra thrilled when they came home to heart shaped orange rolls one afternoon.  I cheated and used a can of pillsbury orange rolls from the store, but I think I might make the real thing Valentine’s morning or for Family Home Evening next week.  Some of the rolls end up looking just like hearts and others end up more rounded on the bottom than pointed, but they still look enough like hearts that I think they are adorable!

Prepare Cinnamon Rolls as directed or use prepackaged can of cinnamon rolls.

When it is time to roll out the cinnamon rolls, roll the dough from each side toward the middle.  Then slice with dental floss, as usual.  Unroll the dough slightly  from the middle and pinch the bottom to form the point of the heart.  Arrange in the pan as shown.  Bake as directed.  Enjoy!

Had to let you know I used this idea for Valentine’s. I made homemade cinnamon rolls and shaped them as you showed. They were stinkin’ adorable! Thanks for the inspiration… heart-shaped cinnamon rolls will likely be on our annual Valentine’s breakfast menu!
