This recipe is so good. And ready to pop in the oven first thing in the morning. I like these better than Cinnabon even.
Ingredients
- 1 cup milk
- 1 stick of butter
- 1 (.25 ounce) package active dry yeast
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
FILLING:
- 1/2 stick butter (soft)
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
Frosting:
- 1 Stick unsalted butter, softened
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 to 3 cups powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
- Heat the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Add the butter and stir until melted; let cool until lukewarm.
- In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the yeast in the milk mixture. Add the sugar, 3 cups of flour, salt, eggs, and vanilla; stir well to combine. Add the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and supple, about 8 minutes.
- Lightly oil a large mixing bowl, place the dough in the bowl and turn to coat with oil. Cover with a damp cloth and let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
- Deflate the dough and turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 10x 14 inch rectangle. Rub the 1/2 stick softened butter over the whole surface, except the top edge. In a small bowl combine the cinnamon and brown sugar and sprinkle over the rectangle. Roll up the dough into a log and seal the seam.To seal the seam you can rub a little water on the unbuttered part.
- Cut the dough into 12 to 14 equal pieces; place the pieces in a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator to rise overnight.
- The next morning, preheat oven to 350 degrees F (190 degrees C). Take the rolls out of the refrigerator and let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
- Bake the rolls for 25 to 30 minutes or until golden. Meanwhile, combine the ingredients to make the frosting and beat with a mixer until fluffy.
