Ninety Minute Cinnamon Rolls image

I found this recipe a few years ago and have adopted this as my official best cinnamon rolls of all time. I make it every Christmas. I like it because I pour the extra cinnamon and brown sugar that is left in the bottom of the muffin tins,over the cinnamon rolls. This way the whole cinnamon roll is like the best part, the center.
