Macaroon-Cinnamon Roll Braid


Cinnamon rolls wrapped around a coconut cream cheese center, topped with almonds and drizzled with icing.

The other day I was grocery shopping and they had Pillsbury canned cinnamon rolls on sale for a dollar!  Of course I bought quite a few cans, and after making them a few days in a row the kids said they were in the mood for something different.  I decided to look online and came across this Macaroon-Cinnamon Roll Braid.  It calls for coconut which my kids and husband love, but I'll be honest, I'm not a big fan so I wasn't sure how it would taste.  This braid took me by surprise because it is divine!  I did however switch out the coconut extract for vanilla and I also omitted the egg because I wanted a more creamy center.  It is so simple to make and I can't wait to make this again for my next get-together!
