Ingredients
- 1 cup whole milk
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
Dough
- 4 cup all‑purpose flour
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tsp instant yeast
- 1 cup warm whole milk
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 large egg
Filling
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup softened butter
Cream Cheese Icing
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions
- 1Preheat the oven to 375°F (374°F) and lightly grease a 9×13‑inch baking pan.
- 2After the dough has risen, punch it down to release air and turn it onto a lightly floured surface.
- 3Roll the dough into a rectangle about 12×18 inches (approximately ¼‑inch thick).
- 4Spread the softened butter evenly over the surface of the rolled dough.
- 5Sprinkle the cinnamon‑brown‑sugar mixture over the buttered dough, covering the entire surface.
- 6Starting from the long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log and pinch the seam to seal.
- 7Using a sharp knife or dental floss, cut the log into 12 equal pieces (about 1‑inch thick).
- 8Place the rolls in the prepared baking pan, leaving a small gap between each; cover loosely with a clean kitchen towel.
- 9Let the rolls proof for an additional 20‑25 minutes until slightly puffy.
- 10Bake in the preheated oven for 20‑25 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
- 11While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese icing if not already done.
- 12When the rolls are done, remove from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes.
- 13Drizzle the cream cheese icing over the warm rolls, allowing it to melt into the crevices.
- 14Serve the cinnamon rolls warm; they can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
