Description

Celebrate Halloween morning with these spooky Bloody Guts Cinnamon Rolls. Made from store-bought cinnamon rolls twisted and coiled to resemble intestines, then topped with a vibrant red, blood-like frosting. Quick to prepare and bake, they make a fun and eerie breakfast treat perfect for the holiday.


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

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit to prepare for baking the cinnamon rolls.
  2. Unravel Cinnamon Rolls: Open both packages and carefully unravel all the cinnamon rolls so they are ready to be shaped.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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!
