Dave’s Cinnamon Roll Recipe

Preparation

1. 1

   Make the Dough

   In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until foamy. Add melted butter, eggs, and salt. Gradually stir in flour until a dough forms.

2. 2

   Knead the Dough

   Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise in a warm place for about 1 hour or until doubled in size.

3. 3

   Prepare the Filling

   In a bowl, mix together brown sugar, cinnamon, and softened butter until well combined.

4. 4

   Roll Out the Dough

   Once the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.

5. 5

   Add the Filling

   Spread the filling evenly over the dough, then roll it tightly into a log.

6. 6

   Cut the Rolls

   Cut the rolled dough into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.

7. 7

   Second Rise

   Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30 minutes.

8. 8

   Bake

   Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown.

   Make the Icing

   In a bowl, whisk together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth.

10. 10

    Glaze the Rolls
