Instructions
- Pour the milk into a large bowl. Stir in the yeast and let it sit for 5 minutes to allow the yeast to activate (it will start to froth or bubble).
- In the bowl of a stand up mixer, beat together the sugar, butter, eggs, salt and flour until well combined.
- Then add in the milk/yeast mixture and combine using the dough hook. Mix until the dough comes clean from the side of the bowl.
- Then transfer the dough to an oil bowl. Cover and let the dough rise until it has doubled in size (will likely take approximately 1 hour).
- Then spray a 9X13 baking dish with a non-stick cooking spray.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the brown sugar and ground cinnamon for the filling.
- Roll the dough out onto a lightly floured surface into a rectangle that is approximately 16X21 inches and is approximately 1/4 inch thick. Then spread the filling softened butter on top of the rolled out dough and sprinkle the cinnamon and sugar mixture evenly on top.
- Then roll the dough tightly starting at the long end. Then cut into approximately 12 slices with either a knife or dental floss and place the rolls in the prepared 9X13 baking pan. Cover the pan with a towel and allow the rolls to rise until the rolls have doubled in size (for at least 30 minutes but you can allow them to rise overnight as well).
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes until the top of the rolls are golden brown and they are cooked through.
- While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. Beat together all the frosting ingredients together in a large mixing bowl with either a hand held mixer or stand up mixer.
- When you remove the rolls from the oven, top the rolls with half of the frosting while the rolls are warm and the frosting will melt down into the rolls.
- Then allow the rolls to cool for 10-15 minutes and then top them with the remaining frosting. Then the rolls are ready to serve and enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure that your yeast has not expired. Yeast is a living organism and over time it will lose its activity.
- The milk should be warm but not hot (around 110 degrees F). If the milk is too hot, it will kill your yeast.
- Cover and refrigerate any leftover cinnamon rolls in an airtight container. Microwave them for 20-30 seconds when enjoying the leftovers. They should last for up to 1 week if stored correctly.
