- 1 can of cinnamon rolls, with icing
- 3/4 cup of sugar, separated into 3 parts of 1/4 each
- a container of cream cheese icing
- food coloring or colored sprinkles
Separate the cinnamon rolls and roll them out by hand into a log shape.
Make the log into an oval and pinch the ends together.
Place on a cookie sheet and bake as directed.
Use food coloring to dye icing.
Make purple, yellow and green in three equal parts.
When your Kings Cake is finished cooking, ice the tops with different colors, (or use plain icing and sprinkles) alternating as you go around the oval.
Enjoy!
From Roseann: I first heard of King Cake when I had a college roommate from New Orleans whose family sent her a King Cake every year during Mardi Gras. It was so delicious! Locally, I have purchased them at ShopRite and while not quite authentic, they are still yummy!
