Hello, friends! It's Secret Recipe Club reveal day once again. Since it is a five Monday month, we are having another Themed Reveal Day. Today's theme: BACK TO SCHOOL. We are focusing on quick meals for breakfast or dinner, after school snacks, and lunchbox goodies! I am so excited to see what the other SRCers have to share because this mom needs all the help I can get in the back to school area. In fact, today we have a girl scout meeting after school followed by a parent meeting. I need a quick dinner for tonight!!

I was assigned Cathleen's blog, A Taste of Madness. Cathleen is a teacher, math nerd, and dessert lover. She loves to try new things in the kitchen and out. I immediately hit up Cathleen's breakfast section because I struggle a lot with making breakfast for my kids during the week - although they love cereal and poptarts - and even school breakfast. I will be honest and say I was immediately drawn to the Starbucks Pumpkin Bread, but that is because it's my favorite breakfast. I get it just about every week at my grocery store because we have a Starbucks inside it.

But this wasn't about me (and I don't have the time nor am I willing to make a recipe that cooks for an hour in the morning - I am not a morning person), it was about my kids. Matt and Cami love cinnamon rolls and I knew they would love Cathleen's Copycat McDonald's Cinnamon Melts. So I didn't search past that. I knew this would be the one (although Cathleen has tons of great recipes that I encourage y'all to check out!).

I was so right! I made these and my kids finished the pan lickety split and then asked for me to make another one LOL. They were so fast to make and they were so good. I loved them just as much as they did. So simple, but seriously the best!

What you need:
  • 1 can (12 oz.) refrigerated biscuits
  • 1 tsp. cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3 Tbsp. butter, melted
For the glaze:
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. butter, melted
  • 1 Tbsp. vanilla
  • 2 Tbsp. milk
Directions:
  1. Cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.
  2. In a bowl, mix cinnamon and brown sugar together. Add biscuits and toss to coat.
  3. Place biscuits into a greased square baking dish - I used a 9x9-inch.
  4. Drizzle with 3 Tbsp. melted butter.
  5. Bake in a preheated-350* oven for 20 to 25 minutes until biscuits are baked through.
  6. Prepare the glaze by beating together the ingredients until smooth.
  7. Pour over biscuits when they are slightly cooled
