Dough Ingredients

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Dough

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt. In a separate bowl, heat the milk and butter until warm (about 110°F), then add the eggs. Mix well, and gradually add to the dry ingredients.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

    Mix until a dough forms, then knead on a floured surface for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic. Place in a greased bowl, cover, and let rise until doubled in size (about 1 hour).

  3. 3

    Make the Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and softened butter until well mixed.

  4. 4

    Roll Out the Dough

    After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle (about 16x24 inches). Spread the filling evenly over the dough.

  5. 5

    Shape the Rolls

    Starting from a long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut into 12 equal pieces and place in a greased baking pan.

  6. 6

    Second Rise

    Cover the rolls and let them rise for another 30-45 minutes until puffy.

  7. 7

    Bake the Rolls

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

  8. 8

    Make the Frosting

    Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth.

  9. 9

    Frost the Rolls

    Once the rolls are baked and cooled slightly, spread the cream cheese frosting over the top.
