Oh you cannot go wrong with cinnamon and bread and breakfast food! Tonight I go to host my second #tryazon parties and it was a blast. The company I showcased was Rhodes. I got coupons for #rhodesbread rolls and a link to recipes galore! I had no idea there were so many things you could make them into. I was drooling over all the recipes. Something I really love about the company #tryazon is that the parties are in person. There are so many things like this nowadays that are just online parties where nobody sees each other and it's just a big huge group chatting in text through the Internet. It is a marvelous world we live in and it has provided great opportunities for companies and individuals. However, I'm a bit old fashioned I guess. I really enjoy preparing my home to gather people together face to face. It is something out society is forgetting about. Being with people, having social interaction, talking in person with each other, and just enjoying time together. This is a great reason why I really enjoy Tryazon. It is an opportunity to gather!
For my recipe contribution I decided to make my moms famous breakfast cinnamon ring. This gooey treat was always made each Christmas morning for our annual Christmas Day brunch. Each year my mom would invite a family or two and an older single woman to brunch and there was always a sticky ring adorning the table. She made a beautiful spread of food and it taught me so much about gathering others together for good food and company. It is an important aspect of life to gather. I am very thankful that she taught me that important social skill and that I have followed (in a small way) in her footsteps.
To thank the wonderful women/families who came and supported me and participated in the evening they each got some Rhodes coupons and a new spatula. It was a lot of fun putting these little take homes together for my awesome guests. I always think it's important to thank those who you love and those who support you. Miss Jane often accompanies me to drop off thank you's I take to others. I hope I'll be able to instill that thanking nature in each of my children. Each family brought a dish to share as well in the feast. And I got to showcase the new microwave cinnamon rolls that Rhodes just put out. They are pretty quick and fabulous. It's an easy way to enjoy one roll and not eat ten at a time :), cause let's face it we all do that!
The Great Cinnamon Ring
Ingredients:
1/2 cup butter (1 cube)
3/4 cup brown sugar
1tsp cinnamon
Nuts/Raisins
Butterscotch Cook'n Serve Pudding (1/2 of a 3 oz. packet)
14-16 frozen Rhodes Rolls (enough to zigzag the bottom of a bundt pan)
Instructions:
1. Heat and melt first three ingredients on the stove until all incorporated into a caramely texture.
2. Spray your bundt pan and line the bottom with your rolls. Just covering the base of the pan.
3. Sprinkle with desired nuts and raisins. And then sprinkle half of your butterscotch packet over them.
4. Drizzle your warm caramel mixture evenly over the rolls and then cover with a sprayed piece of suran wrap.
5. Let rise till rolls are risen to the top of the pan, about 4-6 hours depending on the heat of your home.
6. Cook at 350 for roughly 30 minutes. If the tops getting too brown put a piece of tin foil on it the last 10 minutes of cooking.
7. Let set for about 10 minutes in pan and then flip over onto a serving platter.
8. Enjoy snarfing this one up, it's finger lickin' good!
We ended our evening with an outdoor movie! It was a blast. My cute Mister James set up a projector and we hung a white sheet on the back of the house and it was so much fun to all cozy together in the crisp Autumn weather. We watched a short cartoon based off of a book called "Room on the Broom" and it was really adorable. We will definitely be doing backyard shows much more next year! So there you have the sum up of a wonderfully fun Tryazon party.
