These Cake Mix Cinnamon Rolls come from my collection of “furlough rolls”. My husband is a federal employee and he was furloughed during the fall of 2014. To help make ends meet during that time I made and sold cinnamon rolls when I got off work. I came up with several variations of cinnamon rolls in that time and I dubbed them all furlough rolls. When that time passed and my husband was no longer furloughed I swore I would never knead dough again. Once the blisters healed from closing hundreds of pans and the freezer no longer was stocked with pans of rolls that didn’t sell I missed them. These are seriously worth kneading dough again. Back in 2014 I adjusted this recipe many times and could make these without even thinking but not today. I actually had to pull out my handwritten notes.

A wedding cake cupcake is like having all the flavors of a fluffy sweet wedding cake in a cupcake and having it anytime you want. One of my favorite cookbooks I received as a newlywed back in the late 90’s was The Cake Doctor cookbook. I learned then that boxed cake mixes can be doctored up and made remarkably delicious and this is a perfect example . Another delicious example is my Lemon Cupcakes and I even make Cake Mix Cinnamon Rolls that are to die for. Once I discovered I could make a yummy cake pretty easily I then became a frosting snob. No canned frosting for me!! These cupcakes are perfect for any occasion from weddings , birthdays and showers. For these cupcakes I did a classic white frosting but that is totally up to you. Another bonus is this recipe makes around 30 average sized cupcakes.
