You don't indicate if it has risen at all...
If they have risen some, go ahead and bake them. If they haven't changed at all, then the yeast was probably dead before you started or killed in the making of the dough and they will only bake up like cinnamon hockey-pucks. good luck!

Either your yeast is dead (not risen at all) or was/is to cold (starting to rise, but slower than expected) The slower rise could even be caused by all of your ingredients not being at room temperature before starting..
If the yeast is dead, there isn't really anthing you can do but start over. You should proof the yeast first. Place in a 1/4 cup of warm water - 110-115°F with a teaspoon of sugar for 10-15 minutes. It should foam.
If it is just slow, give it longer to rise. In most cases, it should double original dough size.
Rise times given in recipes are approximate, as yeast types and temperatures in kitchens vary and directly affect the dough.

You may need to start over. If your recipe has yeast in it, it is likely due to the yeast. Yeast is very sensitive - if you didn't let the yeast bloom long enough prior to adding it to the other ingredients, then the dough might not ruse. If might be that you had old or bad yeast. Depending on the recipe, the yeast usually is mixed with warm water and a bit of sugar - if this step was not precisely followed - i.e. the water was too hot/cold, not enough sugar was added, then this might cause the dough not to rise

If these are the type made from frozen bread the bread might not be completely thawed or it may be a little old! Wait about half the rise time more and then bake. They will not look as nice but should work!...Good luck!

Wait a bit longer, if still no results it could be the yeast. All is not lost though, Unless you like small and tough rolls, continue as you would... Personally, I would roll it flat, spread some apple butter or filling of choice and turn it into a coffee cake.
