Ingredients
 

  • 1 can, 17 oz Pillsbury Grands Cinnamon Rolls
  • green food coloring

Directions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Carefully unroll each roll into a long strip of dough. Cut each strip of dough into five equal pieces. Use four pieces to form the leaves of the shamrock. Insert the fifth piece between the two bottom leaves for the stem.
  • Place shamrock-shaped dough onto a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Repeat with remaining rolls.
  • Bake 14-16 minutes until the cinnamon rolls are puffy and light brown. Remove from oven and allow cinnamon rolls to cool at least 10 minutes.
  • Add 1-2 drops of green food coloring to the frosting that came with the cinnamon rolls. Stir well. Spoon the frosting into a plastic zip-top baggie. Snip off the tip of the bag then use it to pipe the frosting onto the cinnamon rolls.
