thanks for the tips. I've always been happy with canned cinnamon rolls at 350 and I usually put all the frosting on while they're warm. I'll have to try putting part of the frosting on and then the rest after cooling them off. If I can resist using the whole thing, that is. when I've tried them

I don’t have trouble most of the time. I’ve gotten a couple thin little cuts many years ago. I can do it on a manual or electric Can opener. I usually take it all out of the can and put it into a bowl or container so I don’t touch those sharp edges and get cut. I like to slice it up all at once

You need a 2.5 to 1 ratio of fluid to rice for brown rice. You'll also get better results if you plug the rice cooker in at least an hour before activating it so the rice and liquid can soak. Sent from my HAL 9000 in transit to Jupiter -Original Message- From: Cookinginthedark

Yes, brown rice takes longer to cook. In order for your rice cooker to stay on longer, you need to add more liquid. As far as I have found, for white rice it's often one cup water for one cup rice. For brown rice just add another half cup of liquid. You might have to play around with the amount of

I find that the amount of liquid required for white rice needs to be increased for brown rice. My rice cooker does have instructions for brown rice. It tells me for each cup of rice to add 1 1/2 cups of water. You should try cutting it and see what works. You are going to have to try
