Equipment

  • Large Mixing Bowl
  • Stand mixer
  • Rolling Pin
  • 9x13 Baking Pan
  • Small saucepan
  • Unflavored Dental Floss

Ingredients
  

  • 4 1/2 cups ALL PURPOSE FLOUR
  • 1 packet ACTIVE DRY YEAST
  • 1 cup WHOLE MILK
  • 1/2 cup UNSALTED BUTTER
  • 1/3 cup GRANULATED SUGAR
  • 1 tbsp GROUND CINNAMON
  • 1 cup LIGHT BROWN SUGAR
  • 4 oz CREAM CHEESE
  • 1 tsp VANILLA EXTRACT
  • 2 large EGGS
  • 1 tsp KOSHER SALT

Instructions
 

  • Warm your milk and melt the butter together slowly. Add the yeast and a little bit of sugar. Let it sit until it becomes very foamy now.
  • Mix the flour, eggs, and yeast liquid together well. Use your stand mixer to knead the dough today. Knead until the dough is smooth and very stretchy.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl to rise. Cover it and wait until it doubles in size. This usually takes about one hour in a warm spot.
  • Roll the dough out into a large thin rectangle. Spread softened butter over the surface of the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon and brown sugar mixture everywhere now.
  • Roll the dough up tightly into a long log. Cut the log into twelve even round pieces today. Place them in your greased baking pan carefully now.
  • Bake in a preheated oven until they are golden. Whisk the cream cheese and sugar for the glaze. Spread the frosting over the warm rolls and serve.

Notes

  • Use warm milk to help the yeast grow faster.
  • Do not add too much flour to the dough.
  • Let the dough rise in a very warm place.
  • Use room temperature butter for the spicy filling today.
  • Cut the rolls with floss for a clean look.
  • Frost the rolls while they are still slightly warm.
  • Space the rolls evenly in the baking pan now.
  • Use high-quality cinnamon for a very bold flavor profile.
