I followed the recipe exactly, but my cinnamon twists turned out dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These cinnamon twists were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good.

I'm not usually a fan of cinnamon twists, but these were really good. The dough was light and fluffy, and the cinnamon sugar filling was the perfect amount of sweetness.
