  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Lightly flour your surface.
  3. Roll out one sheet of puff pastry until about ¼ inch thick (leave the other sheet in the refrigerator).

  5. Evenly sprinkle puff pastry with half of brown sugar, chai spice mix and cinnamon just over buttered area.
  6. Tightly but gently roll the dough up.
  7. Use a little melted butter on the open edge of the roll to seal the seam.
  8. Using a sharp knife, slice the roll into six pieces.
  9. Place each roll inside a parchment paper lined baking dish.
  10. Place the dish in the refrigerator as you repeat the above steps with the last sheet of puff pastry.
  11. Bake the cinnamon rolls in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until golden (watch carefully!).
  12. While rolls are baking, make the icing.
  13. Beat butter until fluffy.
  14. Gradually add powdered sugar.
  15. Add milk or tea and flavorings.
  16. Increase amount of spice, or sugar until desired consistency and flavor are reached.
  17. Place in the microwave for 10-20 seconds until it melts down and is pourable.
  18. Drizzle over cinnamon rolls when they are fresh out of the oven and enjoy. Happy Baking!
