The secret to softer Cinnastix
Most cinnamon stick recipes have you add the cinnamon sugar mixture to the dough and then bake it. In the past I had tried this, and while it was good, it made the topping a little too crunchy.
This time around, inspired by a comment from a former Domino’s employee on a recipe I saw on Food.com, I made my cinnamon sticks according to what the reviewer instructed.
Instead of adding the topping and baking, I brushed the dough with melted butter, baked it, and after it came out of the oven warm I sprinkled it with a cinnamon sugar mixture, then followed up with the icing.
Adjust the icing to suite your tastes
The icing recipe is more of a throw it together and adjust as necessary. The original recipe called for an entire box of powdered sugar which seemed like way too much icing for just one pizza, so I scaled it back.

Baking Sheet

Pizza Cutter
Ingredients
- 1 ball pizza dough unbaked, rolled out into a square or circle
- 1/4 cup butter or margarine, melted
- 2 tsp. cinnamon more if you are a cinnamon fan
- 1/2 c. sugar
Icing:
- 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 Tbsp. milk
- 1 Tbsp. butter melted
- 1/4 tsp. vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350-f degrees.
Using a perforated roller or a pizza cutter, cut the dough into strips. Brush the dough with the melted butter.
Bake for 15 minutes until cooked through, keeping a close eye on it so it doesn’t over bake. Remove from oven.
While the dough is baking, prepare the icing by combining the icing ingredients in a mixing bowl and set aside. If the icing is too thick add a touch more milk.
Combine the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl and stir together well. Sprinkle the mixture over the warm dough. Drizzle with some of the prepared icing and place the rest of the icing in small bowls for dipping. Serve warm.

Dumb question, but pizza dough or would biscuit dough work? – The girl whose mother never her let her in the kitchen 🙂
Reply
PK & B – It could work, but I would recommend the pizza dough for best flavor and texture. 😉

These are in the oven right now and my kids are so excited! Thanks for the recipe!

These look awesome. Can you use just butter or oil instead of butter flavored oil?
Reply
Melt some butter and mix with qual part oil. It should work nicely.

Hi Holly –
You can, and I know a lot of people at food.com where I read the original recipe used melted butter. It isn't quite the same but it is still tasty.
Reply
This looks awesome! My husband was going to make these the other day but we couldn't find a recipe. Thanks to Pinterest I saw this recipe and made my way over here. So when you say several cups of powdered sugar, how many are we talking here? Or an approximate of how many you used.

what brand of pizza dough did everyone use im going to grocery store and want to make sure i get the good kind
Reply
So….i tried this tonight. A big fail….the icing with "several" (ended up using like one cup) powdered sugar ended up tasting like powdered sugar. In less i was doing something wrong…it didnt turn out will.
Reply
I do not not know what the measure "several cups" means exactly. I made this tonight completely different than the directions and it was wonderful! The only part I did follow was the sugar/cinnamon ratio and I had a little bit leftover. For my icing, I used 2 cups sifted confectioners sugar and about 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (melted), 1 tsp. vanilla extract and enough milk to desired consistency (about 2tbsp).

When you say "prepared dough" can I use the Rhodes thaw bread? Or do I actually have to make bread dough?
Reply
Can you provide some clarification on "prepared dough?" and "several cups of powdered sugar."
Reply
Prepared dough is a ball of dough that you can buy already made. It isn't already baked.
Reply
Made these and loved them

Can you use the pilsbury pizza dough in the tubes?
Reply
That should work fine. I like fresh pizza dough because I like the texture and flavor but dough from the tube works too.
Reply
Do you buy fresh pizza dough at the grocery store? Or a pizza place? I have never seen it I don't think in the store. This looks great!

Ali, I wished I was your neighbor! 🙂 Looks wonderful! Ryda

Thanks this sounds great . I cant weight to try it.

You can buy unbaked pizza dough from a pizzeria. I know Papa John's will sell it to you. Trader Joe's sells it too.
Reply
Thanks for the info Vicki! To everyone else asking, you have to ask around in your local area grocery stores and pizza places. I would try the smaller chain pizzerias first. Grocery stores also vary. I have also seen recipes for pizza dough using Rhodes rolls, which you buy frozen, and you can combine them into a ball of dough for pizzas.

These look amazing!

Also- Ali i got pizza dough from the super market, Pillsberry sells it rolled up in their tin containers next to their biscuits and cinnamon rolls, its titled "pizza dough" , i just finished this recipe, it tastes super delicious, thanks again!!
Reply
I think this recipe is wonderful! My only adjustment for the future would be quantity. I used one container of Pillsbury pizza dough, which filled a standard cookie sheet. The amount of topping was about twice what the dough could handle, and the amount of icing was truly about 8 times what we needed. It may be that the type of prepared dough I used was much smaller than what the recipe called for. The taste was AMAZING though, and I will absolutely make this again.

Thank you so much for the feedback Samantha 🙂

Very yummy. My husband loves cinnasticks.
I used the pilsbury pizza dough and like the previous comment, only needed the tiniest amount of cinnamon sugar and icing. I just guessed while mixing and it came out fine.Reply
