Ok my first Sept show is sat and I wanted to do the easy cinn rolls, do you think I can use a 10" skillet and cram them together to show off cookware instead of using stoneware? That way it's more likely to be gooey too as they are sticky buns together? TIA
 
I would practice it ahead of time and check it out!! I would think it would work.

hmm, I guess I will, even though they would go to waste here... maybe I can give them to my brother's family?
I was thinkin it would work since we do the cinn. or garlic bites in the saute pan? Will see tomorrow I guess and report back!
 
They do work! I did them at a show in the 8" skillet. They take about 3-5 minutes longer when they are crammed together, just keep checking on them. They are soooo yummy!!

oh great to know Sandra, thanks! Did you use a whole pack of cresents and do the whole recipe according to the directions then just bake in thecookware pan? Would it be better in the 10" skillet?
 
I like this recipe but I think it could use some icing, so the next time I make it I'll whisk some powdered sugar and milk together to drizzle over the top. It can't hurt to show more product!
 
I don't see why you couldn't do it with the biscuits like the garlic bites. Cut them up in quarters and mix in the melted butter and sprinkles and put in the 8" saute pan. I may have to try that and do that at some of my shows this month.

I did 2 cans of cresents according to the directions, but 2 of the rolls couldn't fit in my 8" skillet so I think your results would be better with the 10" skillet if you do 2 cans like I did. The 8" is good size for 1 can.

When they were done I slid them off the skillet onto a Med Square. The more I'm thinking about it...I think I did have my 10" executive skillet with me not the 8". I think I brought the 10" because I knew I was making 2 cans--she was expecting 10-15 guests. Okay, forget my first paragrah :D

Thanks Sandra! Does 1 pack make 8 or 16 rolls? I thought it was 16 from the demo at confrence?
 
You're right Heather. Although I guess I cut mine a little generously because I never make 15 or 16. I know this is coming too late for you. I hope everything went well on Saturday. They are soooo yummy!

Yes, thanks it went well Sandra thanks for your tips! I demoed it in the 10" skillet, and altough I didn't sell any pans I did sell the carmel sprinkles that I used for the rolls! :) And I added some cream cheese frosting that I had left over from a cake so they were eaten up quick! ANd I also added the brown sugar to stretch it and everyone loved them!

Next I am going to do the cinn. bites in the 8" saute pan at my next show-another cookware fave of mine! :)
