September edition of the Daring Bakers! And my first try as a member too!

They were super easy, though time consuming, as all get out. Mainly with all the down time it took to let the dough rise.

I made both sticky buns and cinnamon rolls! However I changed it up a little and added 2 parts cardamom to one part cinnamon for the rolls in general, and on the sticky buns I used dried cranberries and already candied pecans that I ground to a fine texture using my new mortar and pestle.
They came out so beautiful! I didn't have much time though to take proper pictures. My oven broke so I had to borrow a friends kitchen and ended up staying over rather late, so I was trying to get out as quickly as possible, then headed straight to my college's anime club meeting where I passed out the goodies. They were gone in five minutes and everyone said they were lovely!

I didn't get to taste a cinnamon roll, however I snagged a sticky bun.....the taste was so mellow and oh so sweet, the cranberries were refreshing too. It was like delicious spice cake versus overly cinnamon-y. They fell to bits in my mouth and were light and fluffy. I'm definately going to make these again.

I had no real problems, I just followed all the steps exactly and it came out just fine! However it was definately an afternoon event.
