Ingredients
  

Dough Ingredients

  • 2.25 cups all-purpose flour
  • 0.25 cups granulated sugar
  • 1 packet active dry yeast (2 ¼ teaspoons)
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 cups whole milk
  • 0.25 cups unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 large egg

Filling Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 cups brown sugar, packed
  • 0.25 cups unsalted butter, softened

Icing Ingredients

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk (for icing)
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • Combine 1 cup of flour, granulated sugar, active dry yeast, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Heat whole milk and melted butter until warm, then pour into dry ingredients. Add the egg and mix until combined. Gradually add remaining flour until a soft dough forms.
  • Prepare the cinnamon filling by mixing brown sugar and ground cinnamon in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • After the dough has risen for about an hour, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle. Spread softened butter over the dough, sprinkle with cinnamon filling, roll tightly, and cut into 12 pieces. Place in a greased baking dish and let rise for another 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes until golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes.
  • Prepare the icing by whisking together powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls before serving.
