Everyone was talking about Cinnabons
Those wonderful rich Cinnamon Rolls

The Americans do these kind of rolls, so well
Paula Deen the Queen of Rich and Over the Top food, had this recipe

Coat the bottom of baking pan with butter and sprinkle with sugar.
Place cinnamon roll slices close together in the pan and
Let rise until dough is doubled, about 45 minutes.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until nicely browned.
Meanwhile, mix butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla.
