"i believe this is a great starter recipe. i love cinnamon and was shocked that a sticky bun recipe would only call for 1/8 teaspoon for the entire dessert so i modified it. i added 1 teaspoon of cinnamon to the dough (which i mixed and kneaded by hand and it wasn't very difficult), made it a full teaspoon in the filling, and nixed the cream and water from the goo replacing it with another teaspoon of cinnamon and a dash of vanilla. i used all the dough for the sticky buns and so doubled the goo and filling and baked it in a larger dish. my batch took less then 30 minutes to cook at 325 degrees and they came out absolutely amazing. i don't know if you've ever had the opportunity of tasting the cinnamon rolls they have at the california state fair made by county fair cinnamon rolls but with my modifications these sticky buns are very much like those. sticky, gooey, melt in your mouth, exploding with sweetness and cinnamon!
