Ingredients

  • Cinnamon roll dough with icing (we used this: NOTE: You need the kind that unroll
  • Green food coloring
  • Holiday sprinkles

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 375°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
  • Carefully unroll each cinnamon roll strip. Shape the dough into a zigzag pattern to form a tree, pressing the sections together gently so it keeps its shape while baking. Place the trees on the prepared baking sheet, leaving a little space between each.
  • Bake for about 7-8 minutes, or until the rolls are puffed and lightly golden.
  • Let the cinnamon roll trees cool completely before decorating.
  • In a small bowl, mix the icing that came with the rolls with a drop or two of green food coloring until evenly tinted.
  • Spread the green icing over each tree and finish with a handful of festive sprinkles.
  • Serve and enjoy.
