Method

Make the Dough

  1. 1

    Activate the Yeast

    In a small bowl, combine warm water and active dry yeast. Let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy.

  2. 2

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, salt, and sugar.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the frothy yeast mixture and melted butter to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough forms.

  4. 4

    Knead the Dough

    Transfer the dough to a floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes until smooth and elastic.

  5. 5

    Let it Rise

    Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a damp cloth, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.

Prepare the Filling

  1. 6

    Mix Filling Ingredients

    In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and chopped nuts. Mix until smooth and well combined.

Assemble the Rolls

  1. 7

    Roll Out the Dough

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

  2. 8

    Spread the Filling

    Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the rolled-out dough.

  3. 9

    Roll the Dough

    Starting from one of the long sides, roll the dough tightly into a log shape.

  4. 10

    Cut Rolls

    Cut the log into equal pieces, about 1-1.5 inches thick.

Bake the Rolls

  1. 11

    Prepare for Baking

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a baking dish.

    Arrange Rolls

    Place the cut rolls in the prepared baking dish, leaving some space between them.

    Prepare Topping

    In a small bowl, mix melted butter, cinnamon, and sugar. Brush this mixture over the tops of the rolls.

  4. 14

    Bake
