These cinnamon rolls were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still really good. The mocha flavor was subtle but definitely noticeable, and the rolls were really soft and fluffy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

I'm not a big fan of mocha, but I still really enjoyed these cinnamon rolls. The coffee flavor was subtle and didn't overpower the cinnamon sugar filling. The rolls were also really soft and fluffy. I'll definitely be making these again.
