Notes

Rhodes Rolls Pumpkin Monkey Bread (option)

You will want to take out 20 frozen rolls or frozen cinnamon rolls. Lay on a piece of parchment paper with a piece of saran wrap (that has been sprayed with non stick spray) on the top. Leave in single layer on counter for about 3 hours until they double in size. Then quarter each one and continue on with directions above.
