- Shaping and filling dough: Cut the refrigerated dough into circles and again cut into four pieces.

- Put each of these balls into the cinnamon- sugar bowl and coat it thoroughly.
- Assembling: Butter a bundt pan and arrange each of the balls in it, closely packed. Cover the pan and let it sit for an hour. [I don't have a bundt pan, so I made DIY bundt pan by putting a foil roll in the middle of my springform cake pan ]
