No need for time consuming cinnamon rolls, and I think these are so much better than the the pop open kind of cinnamon rolls, even though you use pop open dough to make them!

Jan's Tip: These use: cinnamon chips which are found in the same aisle with the chocolate chips, but you can substitute ground cinnamon if you'd like.
