# Notes and Tips:
01 -
The more powdered sugar you add to the icing, the sweeter and thicker it will become. Start with a little and add more if desired.

There may be a small amount of liquid left in the bottom of the casserole dish even if the cinnamon rolls are finished baking. It will not affect the taste; drain if desired.
