I realize that I did not post this on the 11th. I've had a busy busy couple of weeks. But, here it is now. I found this recipe on pinterest and I thought it looked pretty tasty, so I gave it a try.
Cinnamon Roll Pull
Ingredients:
1 unsliced round loaf sourdough bread
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup honey
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1 1/4 tsp cinnamon
1 cup powdered sugar
1-2 Tbsp milk
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
To make Vanilla Honey Butter: Whip butter and 1/4 cup powdered sugar together until smooth; stir in honey and vanilla. Set aside. (You can use regular butter if desired)
Cut the bread lengthwise into 1/2" slices, without cutting through the bottom crust. Spread vanilla honey butter in between slices. Rotate the bread 90 degrees and slice the bread again into 1/2" pieces, without cutting through the bottom crust. Spread more vanilla honey butter in between new cuts. This doesn't need to be perfect - just make sure there is lots of butter in between all the cuts. Combine sugar and cinnamon. Generously sprinkle in between all cuts. (You may have extra butter and cinnamon sugar. It will just depend on how large your bread loaf is.)
Wrap in foil; place on a baking sheet. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes, until bread is warm. Unwrap cinnamon bread and place on serving platter. Combine powdered sugar and milk - adding milk until you get the consistency desired. Drizzle icing over bread and serve immediately.

Husband Review:
This seemed like a good idea at the time, but no one ate it. It wasn't because it didn't look good or smell good, we just weren't hungry for it. My husband didn't even try it. I tried it, and it was ok, but not what I was looking for at that particular time. A friend came over the next day and was excited to pair it with a cup of coffee and he said it was exactly what he needed. I think that if I want some sort of a cinnamon roll pull apart, I'm going to make my own dough. The sourdough just wasn't melt-in-your-mouth good like I want my cinnamon rolls to be. Along the same lines, if anyone has a great copycat recipe for Cinnabons, send it my way PLEASE!
