Cinnamon Rolls

I have read about Pioneer Woman's cinnamon rolls for the past couple of years. I read all the comments and it seemed most people thought they were pretty easy. I attempted them tonight. I had such a mess in the kitchen, flour and later melted butter EVERYWHERE!!! It didn't turn out like I had hoped to begin with. I have never used yeast in a recipe before and was extremely intimidated. When I took the first batch out to roll, they were horribly runny and wouldn't roll up right. Those 3 pans went into the trash. I got so frustrated not having them turn out right. Daddy Piper took control of bath time so I could continue working on them. My idea was to let the dough sit and and try again in the morning, hoping they would bake up right so I could take them to my mother's for brunch. Daddy Piper had the wild idea at 11:00 at night to try them again. So together we rolled out the second half and they turned out much, much better. It was fun to bake them together. And they tasted yummy when they were done!!!!
