Take just a few minutes to make these for breakfast or a quick dessert. They're faster than cinnamon rolls, and give a flaky, tender reminder of your love to your family. (Or yourself!)
The secret is how you roll the dough. See below.
And thanks, Add A Pinch, for mentioning these. Her recipe is here.
CINNAMON HEART BISCUITS
Heat oven to 450 degrees.
Use Add A Pinch's biscuit recipe (self-rising flour and cream), OR:
2 1/2 cups flour
5 tablespoons of butter, cut fine
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
sprinkle of salt
Mix together quickly with your hands. Slowly stir in:
1 cup milk
Until you have a soft dough. (Add extra flour if it's too sticky.)
Turn out on a floured surface, and LIGHTLY fold over six times. Press or roll out in an oblong shape -- as thin as you can make it. (It won't be - much.)
Melt or soften a stick of butter. Have brown or white sugar, and cinnamon nearby.
Brush the butter on the dough, then sprinkle heavily with sugar and cinnamon. Now here's the trick:
Roll the dough, starting on the left, toward the center -- then stop.
Now roll the dough, starting on the right, toward the center -- then stop.
Cut thick slices and place on cookie sheet -- bake for 10-12 min.
Frost with confectioners sugar mixed with a little milk. Serve hot.
Yum.
