Cinnabites

My family (mostly Jodi) has been requesting these delicious, little pieces of heaven. You should try them! They taste just like Mc*Donald's

Cinnabites
3 cans refrigerated biscuits (cut into fourths)
2/3 cup butter, melted
1 cup DARK brown sugar
2 tbsp cinnamon
8 disposable pot pie pans
Preheat oven to 350*. Mix together butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Spray pans with Pam. Place a single layer of biscuits in bottom of each pan. Cover with a thin layer of cinnamon mixture. Place another layer of biscuits and cinnamon mixture. Bake for 17-20 minutes or until golden brown. Top with icing. YUM!I use the icing from my Cinna*bon roll recipe (it makes a ton of frosting, so I just store it in the freezer, and thaw as needed). Here's that recipe:
Frosting
The key to this is whipping it up for at LEAST 12 minutes.
8 oz butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 lb powdered sugar
1 tsp lemon juice
2 tsp vanilla extract
Beat butter and cream cheese together. Slowly add in all powdered sugar. once all of the sugar is in the bowl, mix for at least 12 minutes. When almost done, add the lemon juice and vanilla extract.
