Why doesn’t my puff pastry rise like yours?

Three reasons that I can think of is the dough isnt cold enough. For this recipe, you don’t want the puff pastry to sit out at room temperature. It should still be closed when the rolls are assembled and placed in the oven. Also, make sure you continue to keep the oven door closed the entire baking time as well. Lastly, your oven isn’t reaching the high temperature it requires.

Do I need to add butter to the rolls?

No. Because there is so much butter in the pastry already, you don’t need to add butter to the filling or brush melted butter on the outside. Its’s fine the way it is. In fact, if you add butter, the cinnamon rolls may come out goopy.

If I made my own puff pastry, does it still need to be cold?

Yes. Even if you make your dough from scratch, you still want to make sure the dough is refrigerated and roll out the dough into a 9X9 square.
