Pizza Hut Cinnamon Sticks
Soft, buttery cinnamon sticks inspired by Pizza Hut—baked to golden perfection and topped with a rich vanilla glaze. Perfect for sharing, dipping, or indulging all on your own.
Ingredients
- 2 pizza crust dough tubes
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- ¼ cup white granulated sugar
- 2 tsps ground cinnamon
- ¼ cup packed light brown sugar
- 1½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp clear vanilla extract
- 2-3 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Open both pizza dough tubes and press them together into one ball. Let it rest at room temperature while you prep the dish.
- Preheat oven to 400°F (204°C). Brush melted butter across the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9x13-inch dish. Set aside a little butter for later.
- Sprinkle 2 teaspoons of cinnamon sugar over the buttered dish, then add 1 tablespoon of brown sugar on top.
- Roll out the dough and stretch it to fit the dish. Press it into the corners and along the edges with your fingers.
- Use a pizza cutter to slice once lengthwise, then cut across to make 16 sticks. Gently press them back into shape if needed.
- Brush with the remaining melted butter. Sprinkle on the rest of the cinnamon sugar and brown sugar.
- Bake on the center rack for 15–17 minutes, until puffed and golden. Use a fork to check that the center is fully cooked.
- Let cool slightly. In a bowl, whisk powdered sugar, vanilla, and 2 tablespoons milk. Add more milk if needed for a smooth drizzle.
- Drizzle some glaze over warm sticks and serve with the rest of the glaze on the side for dipping.
