Cinnamon and Vanilla Wreaths
Description
The recipe won't take much time. You can shape the pastries differently, making them larger or smaller. I recommend making the dough yourself—use a food processor for kneading or prepare it by hand. Serve the finished rolls warm or at room temperature. The baking is done. Serve at the table.
