Best Ever Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Directions:

Ingredients:

Rolls:

  • 1 Tablespoon active dry yeast
  • ½ cup sugar
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup milk lukewarm
  • ½ cup butter melted
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 cups all-purpose flour

Filling:

  • ¼ cup butter softened to room temperature
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 2 Tablespoons cinnamon
  • Frosting
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1½ cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • pinch salt
  • 2 Tablespoons milk

Directions:

Mix yeast, sugar, eggs, milk, butter and salt together in a large bowl, all at once.

Add 4 cups of all-purpose flour. Mix well with a spoon, cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow dough to rise 4-6 hours on counter or overnight in the refrigerator.

Do not knead the dough.

Roll out dough into a long, thin rectangle on a lightly floured surface.

Spread on softened butter.

Mix together brown sugar and cinnamon, and spread evenly over the dough.

Tightly roll into a jellyroll shape, starting at the long end of the dough.

Use a string or floss to cut dough into 1-inch pieces and place into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan (I placed 15 rolls in a 9×13-inch pan so the rolls were touching).

Cover and let rise for an additional 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F and bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.

In a bowl, mix together frosting ingredients and spread over baked rolls.
