    This recipe is fantastic. To make it easier, put the cinnamon/sugar mixture in a plastic bag, quarter the dough and toss in the bag. It's less mess and takes a lot less time!

    D'Lish us...I made it with only one can of biscuits. I put it into a very small casserole dish I have and it was great. I let it cook for about 15 minutes. Next time I will make an icing to top it. This is a great quick dish to serve at a brunch or potluck. I definately will make this again.
