1. 1

   FILLING: Mix the Baker's Cinnamon Filling with the water. Set it aside.

   ASSEMBLY: Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased work surface and roll it into a rectangle measuring about 8 x 24 inches. Spread a thin layer of cinnamon filling over the dough, leaving about 1 inch uncovered on the short side nearest you. Sprinkle with the additional chips, etc. of your choice. Starting with the short edge covered with filling, roll the dough into a log. Use a serrated knife to gently "saw" the log into six equal pieces. Place each bun into a lightly greased cup of a cinnamon bun pan, or onto a baking sheet (leaving about 2 inches between them), pressing down slightly. Cover the buns, and let them rise in a warm place for 45 minutes to 1-1/4 hours, until they're quite puffy. (I used parchment paper an placed it on a half-sheet pan
