Ingredients

• 3.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cups granulated sugar
• 2.25 teaspoons instant yeast
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 1 cups whole milk
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter
• 2 pieces large eggs
• 0.5 cups brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
• 0.25 cups unsalted butter (for filling)
• 1 cups powdered sugar (for glaze)
• 1 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons milk (for glaze)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine 3 cups of all-purpose flour, the granulated sugar, instant yeast, and salt.

Step 2

In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the milk and 0.25 cups of unsalted butter until warm but not hot (about 110°F).

Step 3

Add the warm milk mixture and the eggs to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough begins to form.

Step 4

Gradually add the remaining 0.5 cups of flour, a little at a time, until the dough pulls away from the sides of the bowl and is slightly tacky but manageable.

Step 5

Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5-7 minutes, or until smooth and elastic.

Step 6

Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm spot for 1 hour or until doubled in size.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and ground cinnamon together to prepare the filling.

Step 8

After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out on a floured surface into a large rectangle about 12x16 inches in size.

Step 9

Spread the 0.25 cups of soft butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 10

Starting on the long side of the rectangle, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seams to seal.

Step 11

Using a sharp knife or piece of dental floss, cut the roll into 12 equal slices. Place the slices into a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 12

Cover the pan with a towel and let the rolls rise again in a warm place for 30 minutes.

Step 13

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Once the rolls have risen, bake them for 18-20 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 14

While the rolls bake, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk in a small bowl until smooth.

Step 15

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool slightly before drizzling the glaze over the top.

Step 16

Serve warm and enjoy your Cinnamon Favorites!
