Ingredients
- 3 loaves frozen bread dough (3- 1 pound loaves)
- ½ cup butter softened
- ½ cup white sugar
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- ½ cup heavy cream
For the frosting
- ¼ cup butter
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
Instructions
To make the Cinnamon Rolls
- Allow the bread dough to thaw. I like to leave it in the refrigerator overnight.
- Combine the 3 loaves of bread and roll out to a large rectangle about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the softened butter over the dough all the way to each edge. Combine the cinnamon and sugar and then sprinkle it evenly over the the butter all the way to each edge.
- Roll the dough up tightly along the long edge. Once rolled, use dental floss, or a serrated knife to cut the roll into 12 pieces.
- Spray a large casserole dish (9 inch by 13 inch.) Place the cinnamon rolls in dish and lightly cover with plastic. Let rise in a warm place until they double in size (about 30-60 minutes.) While they are raising, preheat the oven to 350˚F.*See notes for overnight method.
- Right before baking, pour the heavy cream over the rolls. Bake the cinnamon rolls for 22-28 minutes, or until they are cooked through.
To make the cinnamon roll frosting
- While the cinnamon rolls cool, combine the butter, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl.
- Add powdered sugar and heavy cream alternately with an electric mixer until it was light and fluffy.
- Once the cinnamon rolls have cooled enough to be warm to the touch, spread the frosting over the top of the rolls.
Notes
- Overnight Cinnamon Rolls
- These cinnamon rolls can be made the night before and then baked in the morning. To make them overnight:
- Cream Cheese Frosting
- If you prefer cream cheese frosting, you can add 2 tablespoons of cream cheese to the frosting mix to make it more tangy.
- I use softened butter with cinnamon sugar for ease. If you prefer you can melt the butter and mix the cinnamon sugar in.
- The cinnamon sugar mixture can also be increased for extra cinnamon-y rolls.
- Prepare them per recipe directions to step 5, where you place them in the casserole dish.
- Loosely cover with plastic wrap and place them in the refrigerator overnight.
- In the morning preheat the oven and bake as directed.
