Our thoughts on Hard Rock Hotel:
  • You can’t get any closer to the action of the theme parks and City Walk than Hard Rock.
  • If you are a music lover, you can spend part of a day roaming the halls and corridors looking at all of the memorabilia.
  • If you have a fifth person and require a rollaway bed, it will be a tight fit in the standard rooms.

I found it on Inside the Magic , so all recipe credit belongs to them, but I have copied it below with some of my commentary and photos of my step by step process. Homemade cinnamon rolls are always going to be a bit time consuming, but these only have to proof for 40 minutes total so it’s really not bad at all! First things first, here are the materials you’re going to need: Mixer (one with a dough hook will make your life much much easier) and bowl Rubber scrapers Rolling pin 2-3 saucepans Microwave safe bowls An area big enough to roll them out 2 metal sheet pans with edges Measuring cups Measuring spoons Medium sized bowl for filling Liquid measuring cup The nice thing about the recipe is it uses pretty basic ingredients that you likely already have at your house. I went to Aldi and bought nearly everything just to see and it was about $20. A...
