Manjeet's Mini Sticky Buns©


Manjeet's Mini Sticky Buns©
So as some of you guys know, I love to cook. It has become one of my most enjoyed hobbies over the past year or so. Desserts would probably have to be my favorite because I have a huge SWEET TOOTH! Anyway, a few weeks ago, I was watching a cooking show and they were making cinnamon buns so I decided to take the basic ingredients and turn it into my own. I took the regular size and made then "mini". I also took out the raisins, added the glaze and tweaked many of the other things that didn't suit me or my taste buds. After a few times of making them, I finally got it down and they have turned into a family favorite. Here is my top secret recipe that I am happy to share with you! :)

You will need:
  • Food processor
  • Oven
  • Dough roller
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 2 cups of all purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 sticks of butter
  • 1 cup of brown sugar
  • 1/8 cup of sugar
  • 1/4 cup of cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar (powder sugar)
  • 1/4 cup of milk
  • A LOT OF PATIENCE!
You can change it up if you'd like. Here is how to do it:
  • First put your flour and 1 stick of butter (cut into pieces) into the food processor and pulse until it looks like wet sand
  • slowly at 1/4 of a cup of water until it has formed a ball in the processor
  • Take it out and shape it just a bit and then put it in the fridge for 30 minutes
  • Take it out and roll it until it is 1/4 of an inch thick
  • Make it a rectangle (you might need to cut the edges off)
  • Melt 1/4 of a stick of butter and spread it on the dough
  • Spread the cinnamon, sugar, and brown sugar but not the powder sugar!
  • Roll it in to a log shape
  • Cut the log into pieces and place them in a cupcake sheet
  • Bake for 25 minutes at 360 degrees (remember to spray Pam© so they come out easily!)
This is the glaze:
  • Mix 1/2 cup of powder sugar with 1/4 cup of milk and pour it on top of a warm, yummy, sweet sticky bun!
I hope you enjoyed it because I know me and my family did!

I saw that on Food Network, you did it the same but they added gross stuff like nuts raisins, honey, and eggs. I would love to try it! (I didn't know you were THAT interested in cooking) :)
