Dough and Filling

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Dough

    In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the milk until warm (not hot). Stir in the yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, and salt. Add the yeast mixture, melted butter, and eggs. Mix until a dough forms.

  2. 2

    Knead the Dough

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

  3. 3

    Prepare the Filling

    In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together. Once the dough has risen, roll it out into a rectangle about 1/4 inch thick. Spread softened butter over the dough and sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly on top.

  4. 4

    Roll and Cut

    Starting from one long edge, tightly roll the dough into a log. Slice into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish. Pour caramel sauce evenly over the rolls.

  5. 5

    Second Rise

    Cover the baking dish with a cloth and let the rolls rise for another 30 minutes.

  6. 6

    Bake

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Let them cool slightly before serving.
