Instructions
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add sugar and 1 cup of flour. Stir gently, cover, and set aside until doubled in size, about 30-45 minutes.
- Add butter, salt, eggs, and remaining flour. Mix well with a wooden spoon.
- Turn dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 5 minutes (dough will be a little sticky) Place back in the bowl and cover to let rise until doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, make the filling by combining brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour in a small bowl.
- Roll out onto a 21x16-inch rectangle, about ¼ inch thick.
- Spread the ⅓ cup softened butter then sprinkle with the cinnamon mixture. Roll up long ways and cut into 1¾-inch slices. You should get about 12 cinnamon rolls.
- Place on a greased jelly roll pan and let double in size.
- Bake at 375°F for 15-20 minutes.
- While the rolls are baking, whisk unsalted butter, powdered sugar, cream cheese, vanilla extract, salt together and spread over warm rolls
Notes
- Store unbaked rolls. Fill, roll, and place the cut rolls on a pan. Cover and refrigerate overnight, or wrap the pan again with foil and freeze for 1-2 months. Allow rolls to come to room temperature and rise to double before baking.
