This version of Chebe Cinnamon Rolls comes directly from Tina Marie of The Gluten-Free Foodsmith. She tweaks our back-of-the-box instructions just a bit to come up with these lovely creatures. The honey pecan drizzle is the icing on the cake!  Thank you, Tina for this awesome recreation!

“These Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls are going to be the hit of the evening. They’re great for dessert or a snack. They also pack up well for lunches or for taking to work. You can also freeze them and take out what you want and warm them in the microwave for a few seconds. That is, if you have any left to freeze!” – Tina Marie
