So, I attempted to make cinnamon rolls for the first time today.  Prior to heading into the oven, my experiment looked a little something like this.
It all seemed pretty promising.. But the results?  They were a bloody, dry mess.
The flavor was perfect.  The texture, on the other hand, was completely wrong.  Rather than soft rolls that melted in your mouth, these turned out to be rolls that were hard to cut through with a fork, and a bit on the rough side. :(
On a brighter note: I’m pretty sure I know where I went wrong.  Next time (which might be tomorrow!), I know what to do differently to make this recipe a success.  I will prevail. :)
