Wow, what a wonderful, fanciful dream, Sarah! We certainly have figured out the best way to bake cinnamon rolls, which we've outlined in this post on our blog. However, thawing overnight in the fridge is key. Otherwise what tends to happen is the dough around the outer edges and top of the rolls thaws first and starts to rise. Often times the tops will look fully proofed while the center of the rolls are still frozen solid. Because of this, a cool, slow thaw in the fridge tends to produce the best results. That doesn't mean you can't try experimenting though, Sarah! You might be able to thaw the frozen rolls in the fridge overnight and then put them in the oven to be baked the next day if you use a very small amount of yeast — that way they could rise over the course of the night and be ready by the morning. We hope you'll keep us updated on this adventure if you give it a whirl! Kye@KAF
