Ingredients
Scale
Cinnamon Rolls
- 2 (8 count) packages store-bought cinnamon rolls
Blood Frosting
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 Tbsp milk (more as needed)
- Red gel food coloring (amount as desired for color)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the cinnamon rolls.
- Unravel Cinnamon Rolls: Open both packages and carefully unravel all the cinnamon rolls so they are ready to be shaped.
- Shape the Rolls: On a quarter-sheet baking pan (about 9 x 13 inches), begin twisting, turning, and coiling your unraveled cinnamon rolls to form shapes that resemble intestines for a spooky Halloween effect.
- Bake: Place the shaped cinnamon rolls in the preheated oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Avoid following the package instructions’ longer time as these rolls will overcook.
- Prepare the Blood Frosting: While the cinnamon rolls bake, mix together powdered sugar, milk, and enough red gel food coloring to achieve a vivid blood-red color. Adjust milk quantity if needed to get a drizzle-consistency frosting.
- Decorate and Serve: Once baked, remove the cinnamon rolls from the oven and drizzle the red frosting over them to mimic dripping blood. Serve immediately and enjoy your Halloween treat!
