And the new academic year has officially started! Cinnamon rolls have become a bit of a tradition here in the University of Warwick residences. My night boredom had always resulted in baking. But when you get the urge to start baking at around 9 in the evening it is normal to have the finished good around midnight. And as there is no point in baking without sharing it with others late night taster sessions at my flat had become a tradition! Cinnamon rolls seemed to have been the hit! After requests I am finally signalling the official start of the 2012-2013 Academic Year 🙂
I tried a new recipe. Not my favourite I would say. I think next time I will have to try another one with a more flavoured dough. But here it is:
