How to Make

  • Step 1: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Set oven rack to lowest position. Lightly grease two 12-inch pizza pans.

  • Step 2: In a shallow bowl combine both sugars and cinnamon; set aside.

  • Step 3: On a lightly floured surface roll each loaf of dough into a 12 x 4-inch rectangle.

  • Step 4: Cut each rectangle lengthwise into four 1-inch strips (use a pizza cutter for easy slicing).

  • Step 5: Roll each strip into an 18-inch long rope; coat each rope in cooled melted butter, then roll in sugar mixture.

  • Step 6: "Coil” one rope in the center of a greased 12-inch pizza pan.

  • Step 7: Add three more ropes pinching ends together to fill one pan.

  • Step 8: Repeat with remaining ropes on a second pizza pan.

  • Step 9: Sprinkle with nuts and remaining cinnamon-sugar.

  • Step 10: Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 40-45 minutes).

  • Step 11: In a small bowl whisk the confectioners sugar with light cream and vanilla until smooth; drizzle over warm rolls.
