As I've said before if you're just starting out with your Big Shot & wonder what die  to get that will be the most versatile... This one is the one to get!!! We have made everything from scarecrows to ...well purses with it!!  This also used the 4x6" cello bags & we cut them  down to 3".

No Yeast Vanilla Cinnamon Sticky Rolls

Mix  & knead to a soft dough:

1 small pkg instant vanilla pudding
1/4 t salt
1/2 t soda 
1 1/2 t baking powder
1 c milk

Roll up & cut into rolls. Place in greased 8x8 pan. Melt 5 t butter & pour over rolls. Sprinkle rolls with 1 small box of Cook-n-Serve Butterscotch Pudding (dry).
Bake 350• 20-25 min.
Invert onto serving plate. When cooled top with:
8 oz cream cheese
1/4 c melted butter
2 t vanilla

TIP:
Even tho it says an 8x8 pan I would put them in a bigger pan and not crowd them & bake at a lower temperature for a little longer. Mine at card class were a little underbaked. So play with the temperature....
