To kick off the holiday season, the residents of Cincinnati show off what a great baking town they are with schnecken which is the sweetest and stickiest baked confection you have ever had. It is indeed drizzled in and soaked in a supersaturated sugar solution which heats water until it holds far more than normal dissolved sugar. You then put the baked cinnamon rolls in it and let them absorb the warm sugar solution. Sugar crystallizes out of the liquid and reforms around the bottom of the buns. Boy, that is really really really heavenly. There is too much butter in it, there is the best of all cinnamon and the most toothsome bun in it all. This is really heaven. This was inspired by my step daughter, Nanette who loves cinnamon..Sweet, spicy.
