Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.75 cups Whole milk
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (softened)
• 0.5 cups Light brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Ground cinnamon
• 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon Whole milk (for frosting)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch round baking dish or pan.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt.

Step 3

Add the milk and melted butter to the dry ingredients and stir until a soft, tacky dough forms. Do not overmix.

Step 4

Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead lightly for 1-2 minutes until smooth. Roll the dough out into a rectangle approximately 10x12 inches.

Step 5

Spread softened butter evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the brown sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle this mixture evenly over the buttered dough.

Step 7

Starting at one of the long edges, roll the dough tightly into a log. Pinch the seam to seal it.

Step 8

Slice the log into 6 equal pieces and place the rolls cut-side up in the prepared baking dish.

Step 9

Bake the rolls for 13-15 minutes, or until puffed and lightly golden brown.

Step 10

While the rolls are baking, prepare the cream cheese frosting. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.

Step 11

Add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and milk, then beat until light, fluffy, and smooth. Add more milk if needed for a thinner consistency.

Step 12

When the cinnamon rolls come out of the oven, let them cool for 5 minutes. Then spread the cream cheese frosting generously on top of the warm rolls.

Step 13

Serve immediately and enjoy the warm, gooey goodness!
