Gooey Cinnamon Pastry

I didn't set out to be gooey but it definitely was!
After seeing some pics of meat and cheese filled pastries out here I had in mind to do one with cinnamon.
I used the filling recipe from the food network (link someone provided to my earlier post asking for cinnamon filling recipe) and frozen puff pastry.

Cinnamon Rolls


The pastry was quite tasty but will need some refining.
I'll start by saying it was delicious :cheer: - then again it'd be hard to be anything but using bread, cinnamon, brown sugar, and butter.
But it could use some work...
1. I should have made the filling into a paste. I piled it in and added some melted butter and it was a bit grainy when it came out.
2. Might just be better to make it as rolls. I had a large pocket of filling which melted/oozed more than intended.
3. Should have prepped it last night (and the egg). Kids weren't real patient with the 30+ minute cook time and prepping the egg at 28* was chilly (that's pretty cold in South Carolina so you northerners give me a break ;))
4. Shouldn't have flicked the cinnamon goo that oozed onto my stone off with a spatula as it stuck to my finger and burned like H*$L!

Anyway - here are the pics
