Dough:

Filling:
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened, divided
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar

- Spread butter over tops of dough sheets. Spread 2 tablespoons of softened butter evenly over each sheet of dough.
- Whisk together sugar and cinnamon. In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and cinnamon.
- Sprinkle cinnamon sugar mixture over top of each buttered dough sheet. Sprinkle ¼ cup of the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the top of each buttered dough sheet.
- Roll up each sheet into a log. Starting on the long end of the dough sheet, tightly roll it up into a log.
- Cut roll in half. Cut the log in half, creating two shorter logs.
- Cut shorter logs in half lengthwise. Cut each of those shorter logs in half lengthwise.
- Repeat with remaining dough. Repeat with the remaining two sheets of dough.
- Roll each section into a cinnamon roll shape. Working one section of dough at a time, roll it tightly into a cinnamon roll shape.
- Place in muffin tin. Place into the prepared muffin tin. Repeat with the remaining sections.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes.
- Roll each cruffin in cinnamon and sugar. Remove rolls from the oven and immediately roll each cruffin in the remaining cinnamon sugar mixture. Enjoy!
