How cute and easy! I never would have thought to do them in a heart shape 🙂
Hi Loretta, I know and they were so easy to do! The kids would love to have these on Valentine’s Day morning. 🙂
They look so easy to make. I think I’ll have to make these for Valentine’s Day. Thanks so much for all these wonderful recipes.
Hi Cathy,

It’s so simple and cute how can I not do this for Valentine’s Day! Thanks for the great idea!
I can’t wait for easy ideas like this.
Can’t wait to does these….simple and easy!
Can’t wait to try this.
Hi Debbie, Super fun super easy!
so you’re using two of the cinnamon rolls to make one heart – right?
Hi Susan, Only one cinnamon roll per heart. 🙂
I also thought you meant 2 rolls were used. How to get the top as a heart when you only have 1 center that stays coiled? I’m not understanding the instructions! Thanks- can’t wait to try this!
So sorry. I get it now!
Okay Great Melissa. Let me know if you have any questions. 🙂
Awesome can’t wait to have a go at these!
Gotta try this for the Grand Children
They’re going to love it Marcella!
I must make these for Valentines day
I bought Pillsbury cinnamon rolls. They don’t unwind so I can’t create the heart shape. I’m sooooooo sad. Did I buy the wrong cinnamon rolls?
That sucks Kat! Yes, you need to buy the large cinnamon rolls (Grands).
Thanks Sherly. My son’s birthday is next week, and he adores cinnamon. I am going to prepare this and surprise him. His birthday is going to be a blast. Oh Boy! He is going to be surprised when he sees his mommy making his favorite cinnamon roll and banana fruit cake.
Sounds like a fun day Vernon! 🙂
Nice recipe and straight to the point. It should be easy to bake I guess. The look is so inviting
Thanks Samuel!
I’m going to try these for my grandkids for Valentines Day!
That sounds like fun Debbie!
Think I am going to add some food coloring to my frosting…..pink or red will do……Would work for weddings too!!
Great Idea Ruth!
Do these have to be served immediately or would they be just as good served the next day.
Hi Faye, Yes…you’ll need to serve them the day you make them. You can eat them the next day but they’re not as tender and fresh.
Man, my kids would love that. I guess they eat too much sweets but I will definitely want to try it.Great recipe Sheryl. Thanks for sharing
Awww…You’re Welcome Julia!
Can’t wait to make these for my Bible Study group, thanks for such a great idea!!

Awesome Cheryl! ♥
Awesome can’t wait to have a go at these! Thanks for sharing.
Yay! Have fun Maira!
Sheryl, you said you only use one roll for a heart. So do you have to roll it up to make the top correct?
Hi Juli, Yes, you unroll the roll (leaving the end rolled) and then roll the other end back leaving enough in the center to form the point of the heart. If you watch the video at the top of the post it will help you understand more clearly.
I made these this morning, and they were super easy and came out really cute! I definitely recommend following the suggested 13-15 minute baking time suggested here. The cinnamon roll tube suggests 23-27 minutes, and I was afraid 15 minutes would not be enough, so I added another 5 minutes which was too long. They were still good but yeah….definitely go by the baking times suggested here and check them. I’m not sure if unrolling them maybe makes them cook quicker, idk? But no one complained, haha! I’ll just know next time. I am all about the easy when it comes to cooking. I wish I could share a picture. They were adorable! 💕
Yay Gena…Happy Valentines Day!
