3. 3Make the cinnamon filling

   Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together for the filling. For extra gooey rolls, double the filling portion.

   To make them extra gooey, double the filling and spread 1/4 of it on the bottom of the pan before adding the rolls. If you like them less sweet/gooey, use the standard amount.
