Cinnamon Roll Recipe! :D

Home-made cinnamon rolls

Hi! So today I am writing about a very popular cinnamon roll recipe I use often, yet modify a tad bit. My mods will be in brackets

You'll need:

A baking sheet [9x13-flat would be fine]
Parchment paper

Ingredients

Original recipe makes 12 rolls 

         Rolls:

• 1 cup warm milk (110 degrees F/45 degrees C)
• 2 eggs, room temperature [I use brown eggs]
• 1/3 cup margarine, melted [I use salted butter, so I will either omit the salt, or use 1/2 teaspoon]
• 4 1/2 cups bread flour [All purpose flour works just as well)
• 1 teaspoon salt [If you use salted butter, you will not need as much salt]
• 1/2 cup white sugar
• 2 1/2 teaspoons bread machine yeast
•   1 cup brown sugar, packed

• 2 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon
  
• 1/3 cup butter, softened
  
  Frosting:
  
  
  
•   1 (3 ounce) package cream cheese, softened [I use 4 ounces]
• 1/4 cup butter, softened
• 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/8 teaspoon salt [I use salted butter, so I omit the salt]
  PREP: 20 minutes, COOK: 15 minutes, and READY IN: 3 hours (due to letting the dough rise)

  Directions

• Place ingredients in the pan of the bread machine in the order recommended by the manufacturer. Select dough cycle; press Start.
  
  [For those without bread makers: Dissolve the yeast in the warm milk in a large bowl. Mix in the sugar, margarine, salt, and eggs. Add flour and mix well. Knead the dough into a large ball, using your hands dusted lightly with flour. Put in a bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.-credit: ANDYTAMI]
• After the dough has doubled in size turn it out onto a lightly floured surface, cover and let rest for 10 minutes. In a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon.
• Roll dough into a 16x21-inch rectangle. Spread dough with 1/3 cup butter and sprinkle evenly with sugar/cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough and cut into 12 rolls. Place rolls in a lightly greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Bake rolls in preheated oven until golden brown, about 15 minutes. While rolls are baking, beat together cream cheese, 1/4 cup butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and salt. Spread frosting on warm rolls before serving.
  
  
  That's it! It's pretty simple, and tastes just as good, if not better than Cinnabon. If you have the time to make them, go for it! You won't be disappointed :)
  
  
  
  Till next time!
