Kids in the Kitchen- Cinnamon Twist

Wow, Its Thursday already!!! This week has flown by, and I have been so busy I can't even see straight, part of me wonders how the heck I got all this stuff done while I was working? Because I can barely manage now when not working!!!

Glad you all have stopped by this week to check out Kids in the Kitchen, you may think that I would have a biscuit fetish, doing 2 post in one week using biscuits (see Easy Donut post here) In all actuality though I am just trying to use whats in my fridge before we leave for our honeymoon next week, and truth be known I am a sucker, I bought the 4pk of biscuit cans instead of getting just 1 pk bc afterall I thought I was getting a deal (and I was!!!) And last night when visiting a local fast food resturant, with Lu in the back seat hollering for some cinnimon twist, a light bulb went off, "HEY I BET I CAN MAKE THOSE WITH THE BISCUIT DOUGH AND BETTER THAN THE FAST FOOD PLACE" so off I went on an endevor to find a recipe .... and they were Oh So Simple!

I did not take a picture like normal, so the ingredients are as follows:

*1 can store brand buttermilk bisquits

*cinnamon/sugar mixture

*butter (just a couple melted tablespoons)

*Preheat oven to 350 degress

I also whipped up some glaze to go on top, and will get to the ingredients later in the post.

I cut the biscuits in 1/2 while Lu rolled them out, this part was fun, and she described it as making snakes with her her modeling clay.

Then she took a marinade brush, and brushed the melted butter on 2 strips at a time

Then sprinkled it with the cinnamon.sugar mixture.

and twist .... this was fun too! Lay them on a nonstick cookie sheet, and once again sprinkle a little more sugar mix over them. Put them in the preheated oven for 15 mins or until golden.

For the glaze I did not measure, but we used approximatley 1 cup powdered sugar, a couple tablespoons of milk, some vanilla, and a dash of salt. She stired until a nice creamy consistency.

Then spooned the glaze on the warm twist.

Heres the end product, they were yummy, and now I only have 1 can of biscuits left ... any ideas yall got out there for me to make with it???

I leave you with this one last pic of my little Lu, eating and talking on the phone, oh shes just like her mother!!!
