Ingredients

  • One 8 count of package of Pillsbury cinnamon rolls
  • 16 ounce can of vanilla icing
  • green food coloring
  • candy like M&Ms
  • sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 400.
  • Arrange the cinnamon rolls on a foil lined baking sheet in a Christmas tree pattern as described in the post.
  • Bake the rolls according to the directions on the package, keeping in mind the rolls may need a little extra time because they are all pushed together and touching.
  • Remove them from the oven when they are golden.
  • Let the rolls cool.
  • Remove the top of the icing can and the foil layer. Microwave it for 30 seconds to a minute so it melts and gets liquidy.
  • Stir in a few drops of green food coloring until it makes a green color you like for the tree.
  • Pour the icing over the cinnamon rolls. Make sure to evenly cover the rolls, but leave the bottom roll bare so it looks like a tree trunk.
  • Decorate with candy, sprinkles, etc.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Cook the extra cinnamon roll on a separate sheet.
