Cinnamon Rolls

       I got a magazine subscription from my grandma to Cooks Illustrated Best Recipes.  The idea is that each month they choose a couple of recipes and find the very best version.  In one of them, there was a recipe for cinnamon rolls that I decided to try and this is how they came out:
