- Feel free to customize the frosting by adding a dash of lemon juice or orange zest for a citrusy twist.
- These cinnamon rolls are best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. Simply reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.
