Description

Cinnamon Sugar Biscuit Bites bring nostalgic Southern comfort right to your kitchen table. Warm, buttery pillows rolled in sweet cinnamon sugar create an irresistible treat you’ll crave again and again.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients:

  • 1 small roll canned biscuits
  • ¼ cup sugar (white and brown mix)
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 12 tablespoons butter (melted)

Sweeteners:

  • ¼ cup powdered sugar

Flavor Enhancers:

  • 12 teaspoons milk
  • ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Warm the oven to a precise 350°F (175°C), ensuring an even temperature for optimal baking results.
  2. Place butter in a baking pan and allow it to melt completely in the preheated oven, creating a smooth, golden base.
  3. Take refrigerated biscuit dough and slice each round into four equal, bite-sized triangular pieces.
  4. Combine granulated sugar and brown sugar with ground cinnamon in a shallow mixing bowl, creating a fragrant coating mixture.
  5. Gently roll each biscuit piece in the cinnamon-sugar blend, ensuring complete and even coverage.
  6. Carefully arrange the sugar-coated biscuit pieces in the butter-lined pan, positioning them with slight spacing between each piece.
  7. Transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake for 14-16 minutes, watching for a rich golden-brown color and crispy edges.
  8. While baking, prepare the glaze by whisking powdered sugar with whole milk and pure vanilla extract until smooth and drizzle-ready.
  9. Remove the biscuit bites from the oven and allow them to cool for 3-5 minutes, maintaining their warmth.
  10. Drizzle the prepared vanilla glaze generously over the warm biscuit bites, allowing it to cascade and set slightly.
  11. Serve immediately for maximum flavor and texture, or allow to cool to room temperature for a more set glaze.

Notes

  • Keep leftovers sealed in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Experiment with different spices like nutmeg or cardamom for unique flavor variations.
  • Serve alongside morning coffee or as a quick dessert after lunch or dinner.
  • Frozen biscuit dough works perfectly if thawed and cut into quarters beforehand.
  • Salted butter can enhance the sweet-savory balance of these delightful bite-sized treats.
