I made these about a week ago. I saw the recipe on My Kitchen Cafe & thought they looked delicious. I was also intrigued by the idea that you use vanilla pudding in it's prepared form. It makes the dough really moist. I LOVED the dough & definitely will use it again. The frosting was good. If you love cream cheese frosting on your cinnamon roll then you will love it. I definitely prefer the standard milk, butter, sugar & vanilla or cinnamon on my cinnamon rolls (my mom always replaces the vanilla in her frosting with maple extract & that's super good too).

I've heard of using vanilla pudding in cinnamon rolls and now I'm glad I have a recipe to try. I love cinnamon rolls!
I've used a similar recipe and I've used the vanilla pudding that I've canned in the church cannery. It works just as well and it feels good that I'm rotating my food storage too.
