Gooey Cinnamon Rolls
Serves: 10
1 Point per Roll

1 (7.5 ounce) can Pillsbury refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/4 Cup Pourable Splenda
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
40 Miniature Marshmallows

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Spray 10 wells of a 12-hole muffin pan with butter flavored cooking spray.
Separate biscuits and flatten each into a 4 inch circle.
In a small bowl combine Splenda and cinnamon. Dip each biscuit into the cinnamon/Splenda mixture.
Place 4 marshmallows in the center of each biscuit. Bring edges up to form balls. Place each in a prepared muffin well, seam side down.
Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove rolls from pan immediately and cool slightly on a wire rack.
Note: The marshmallows inside make these rolls taste almost like the real thing except they won't make your fingers all sticky, and these are point friendly.

These sound great. Thanks for the recipe! However, I ran it through MasterCook and came up with 2 points each.

Thanks for checking, Andrea. I got this recipe from another website, and I wonder if they are 1 point if you use low-fat Pillsbury biscuits. Did you count the regular?

MasterCook does not have regular buttermilk biscuits (only Grands) nor the reduced fat biscuits in its database. I've searched a little online but I give up for now. If anyone has the nutrition info, send me an e-mail (via my profile) with all of the nutrition info and I'll refigure the points on this recipe.

I made these twice over the weekend. The first time, I used only 4 marshmallows; the second time I used 6 marshmallows per biscuit and added some Butter Buds to the SPLENDA/cinnamon mixture to give them a more buttery flavor.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for such a wonderfully delicious recipe. These rolls will become a staple at my house!

I made these rolls this morning and they were fabulous. I can't thank you enough for posting this recipe. The only problem I had as stopping myself from eating the whole batch.

Hi...this is my first time here so I do not know if I am doing this right....this morning I made the gooey cinnamon rolls and they were absolutey scrumptios.....but when I calculated from what was on the outside of my buttermilk biscuits package I came up with 3 points instead of 1 point as the recipe stated.....This is what was on my package....Calories...110, Dietary Fiber....0, Total Fat....5g.... so did I calculate correctly on my points finder....any reply to this message would be greatly appreciated....Thanks....Suzie.....you all have a nice day....

Reply Double check the serving size
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SuzieQ51 - you might want to double check the serving size. For most canned biscuits that I've seen, the serving size is 2 biscuits not one - it also sounds like you might not have the reduced fat kind, so that would be 2 rolls for 3 points total.

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks Monica for replying.......I doubled check the package of biscuits I bought......they were Buttermilk Biscuits.....flaky layers......serving size was 1 biscuits......Calories.....110.......Total fat grams......5 and Dietary Fiber.......0.....soooooo I guess mine were worth 3 points instead of 1...... .......but today I bought me some different biscuits......LiteFluff Biscuits......Homestyle.......Serving size.......2.....Calories 100......Total fat......1.5 g.....Fiber
1 g......so these would be 2 points for 2 rolls .....correct???.....thanks Suzie

I have a little desktop calculator - and for 100 cal 1.5 fat and 1 fiber it comes out to 1.9 points ~ so, yup, you should count it as 2 points.

Good luck in your journey.

Oh my gosh....whoever thought up these little puppies deserves a great big kiss. I have to agree with what someone else said, that it is hard to keep from eating them all. Whole family loved them! Thanks for the recipe.

i get biscuts that are 50 cal and 1 gram fat per biscut.they do not say low fat on them.they are the cheapest of the cheap biscuts you can get at walmart and aldi.they do not have reduced fat biscuts in my area.

my suggestion to everyine whom is having trouble finding 1pt biscuts,forget about the words low fat and just stand there in the store reading the ni ,till you find what you need.and maybe start by looking at the cheepie genaric ones.

and these are fabulous!!! thanks1

Ok, I'm new here and a little confused. I also found this recipe which said 1 point. So, is it really 2 points unless you find a lighter biscut, then it would be 1 point?

I have made these several times since finding them on the AimeesAdventures website, and they are DELICIOUS! My problem is keeping them long enough to be able to eat them - the kids INHALE them!

[momagain]

Making 4 dozen of these to take to Church's Easter b'fast tomorrow! I had to try one of course and they are yummy!

I am calling them "Inside out" cinnamon rolls; since on the outside they just look like a biscuit...and putting a sign on the container that says WW Friendly 1 pt per roll

:-)

[wannaBthin]

These sound yummy, I will have to try these.
I haven't seen the liquid splenda either so will have to look for that.

[momagain]

I did the one w/OUT the pourable splenda...

these were/are a HUUGE HIT!! Perfect to grab n go w/o a mess for my older kids!! I may make these each Sunday a/m as they LOOVED THEM!!!!

[Southern Belle]

I made them with Equal several years ago & they were really good too. We have dinners at church all the time & it is hard to find things that are diet friendly. I love it when people make & take the time to label WW friendly foods. I just wanted to add a note about taking foods containing artificial sweetener to buffet meals.

You may want to consider adding "contains (insert name of sweetener)" on the little card containing the point information. Some people may have allergies to certain brands. I know that if I eat any Splenda it triggers the onset of a horrific migraine within 10 minutes, but I can eat anything with Equal. I bet I'm not the only one.

When the reciep says pourable splenda do they mean liguid? Or do they just mean not the little packets.

[purktoni]

I don't have the pourable Splenda. Is the powdered kind translated into the same measurement?

[Joy]

Holy cow these sound delicious!! I will have to make these this weekend...they sound sooo good! (I think I'll have my 2 year old help me, since she loves to help Mommy cook)

When you dip in the splenda/cinnamon mixture (am I assuming correctly that it's the granulated kind?), the dipped side is the inside, right?

[juniper]

Thanks for sharing this recipe. I really liked them, they were quick and easy and I'm wondering how they would keep in the freezer. I will definitely be making these again.

[Joy]

Just a tip - I dipped both sides in the splenda/cinnamon mixture, since it is no points. Really, really good!!

[DawnMarie]

These are awesome! I'm making another batch this weekend!

Question...they were kinda "hollow" inside...is that how yours turned out? Or did I do something wrong?

Thanks for the recipe!
