EASY CINNAMON TWISTS RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray (or use parchment paper or a [silpat liner|http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00629K4YK/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B00629K4YK&linkCode=as2&tag=myrecmag-20&linkId=GYHYTBHHHJXO4TQA]).
• Roll out your pizza dough on a lightly floured surface (or just push it out with your fingers).
• In a small bowl, mix together sugar, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Brush melted butter over the entire surface of the dough and sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture evenly on top.
• Fold the dough in half (long ways or as my kids would say: like a hot dog bun). Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut dough into 12 skinny strips (about 1" thick). Take each strip, and while holding the ends, twist around once or twice and place on the cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining dough strips.
• Cook for 11-12 minutes (or until they are slightly golden).
• While the twists are baking, mix together the frosting ingredients. You can either drizzle the frosting over the hot twists or wait until they cool down. My kids also like to use the frosting as a dip.

CINNAMON ROLL TWISTS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F and line 2 baking trays.
• Place light brown sugar and cinnamon into a small bowl and stir until combined. Leave to one side.
• Place ready rolled pastry sheet onto a cutting mat and brush melted butter all over.
• Sprinkle the cinnamon mix all over the pastry and press slightly with the back of a spoon, just to make sure it's stuck.
• Slice into 12 strips, about 1 inch thick, but this will depend on the size of your sheet.
• Take either end of the strip and twist; twist one hand away and the other towards until the twist meets in the middle.
• Place twists on baking tray, 6 to a sheet with 2 inch gaps between them.
• Place in oven for 10-12 minutes until risen, puffy and golden.
• Leave to cool on the trays completely.
• Once cool, place the cream cheese, icing sugar and vanilla into a medium sized bowl and beat on med-high speed until light and creamy, about 1 minute. Add in 1/2tbsp milk and beat until combined. If required, add the other 1/2tbsp and mix. You want a consistency which will pour, but isn't so thin it won't stick to anything.
• Either drizzle over the twists or place in a small bowl to dip the twists inches.
• Twists will keep in an airtight container, at room temperature for 2 days, dip will keep covered in the fridge for 2 days.
