Instructions
- To make the dough, warm up the milk (just warm to the touch, not hot), add the yeast, a teaspoon of sugar and a teaspoon of flour, and mix well.
- Set aside for 10 minutes until it becomes frothy.
- In a large bowl, sift the flour, add the egg, yeast mixture, remaining sugar and melted butter.
- Knead well into a dough that is elastic and it does not stick to the hands - add more flour if necessary.
- Cover the bowl of dough with clingfilm and a clean tea towel, and leave to prove in a warm place for 1-2 hours or until it's double in size.
- Use a rolling pin to roll the dough into a rectangle, then spread the butter over, and sprinkle the mixed sugar and cinnamon.
- Roll the dough into a sausage, rolling it from bottom up, then use a sharp knife to cut it into 12 rolls.
- Line a baking tray with non-stick paper, then arrange the rolls making sure there is some gap between them.
- Cover the tray with a tea towel, and leave to prove again for maximum an hour, until the rolls have risen further and the gap between them is closed.
- Bake in the preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (350 Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool down.
- To make the icing, add the sifted icing sugar and butter to a food processor together with the milk and vanilla extract.
- Mix until well combined, then add the cream cheese and mix again until really smooth.
- Spread the icing all over the rolls, then serve.
