Do you have any suggestions for filling flavors other than cinnamon? I love these but hubby HATES cinnamon, and I'd love to make something he'd eat. I've often wondered if cocoa would work (sort of like pain au chocolate?), but I haven't tried it yet! Also, my go-to cinnamon roll recipe calls for butter smeared on the dough before the cinnamon-sugar is sprinkled on, and while it definitely ups the fat content, I've never had them dry out. It makes the filling so gooey and delicious, too :) Yes, Heather, smearing with butter is definitely an option; they unravel more easily (since the fat separates the spirals), but oh-so-yummy! I think cocoa with some confectioners' sugar would be good. As would finely diced crystallized ginger; sweetened coconut mixed with coconut milk or a touch of condensed milk; chopped dried cranberries or other dried fruit... crushed nuts with honey... the possibilities are endless and yummy! :) PJH
