CINNABONS CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• For the rolls, dissolve the yeast in the warm milk with a tsp of sugar (you can take a tsp out of the 1/2 cup of sugar) in a large bowl. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. If the yeast is good, it will start to froth up.
• To the bowl of your mixer add the sugar, butter or margarine, salt, eggs, and flour and mix until well incorporated.
• Pour the milk/yeast mixture over the flour mixture and using the dough hook, mix well until well incorporated and the dough comes clean from the side of the bowl.
• Place the dough into an oiled bowl, cover and let rise in a warm place about 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
• Combine the brown sugar and cinnamon in a bowl.
• Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
• Roll the dough out on a lightly floured surface, until it is approximately 16 inches long by 12 inches wide. It should be approximately 1/4 inch in thickness.
• Spread the 1/3 cup of butter evenly over the dough, then sprinkle with the sugar evenly over the surface of the dough.
• Working carefully, from the long edge, roll the dough down to the bottom edge.
• Cut the dough into 1 1/2 inch slices, and place in a lightly greased baking pan. You can also use floss to cut into slices, as seen in the video. Place the cut rolls in the prepared pan. Cover with a clean kitchen towel or plastic wrap and let them rise for another 30 minutes, or until doubled in size.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Place the baking pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Cooking time can vary greatly!
• While the rolls are baking make the icing by mixing all the icing ingredients and beat well with an electric mixer until fluffy and smooth.
• When the rolls are done, spread generously with icing.

CINNAMON ROLLS (LIKE CINNABON)

Steps:

• For the Rolls: Dissolve yeast in milk that is between 100-110 degrees F. Add the sugar and let sit (proof) for 5 mins until slightly foamy.
• Melt the butter in the microwave.
• In large bowl, add flour, salt, melted butter, and yeast mixture. (Can also use KitchenAid with dough hook attachment). Mix ingredients on low, adding eggs one at a time, continue mixing until dough ball is formed, knead for about 3-5 minutes, then set aside in bowl covered with moist towel and let rise for 1 hour.
• Now make the filling: Combine brown sugar, flour, corn starch, and cinnamon in small bowl. Mix well.
• After dough has risen, punch down dough and roll out on lightly floured surface until it's abou 20-24 inches long and 16 inches wide. (should be about a 1/4 inch thick).
• Spread softened butter (or Smart Balance Spread) over dough. Top with brown sugar mixture. Working from the long side, roll the dough (like a jelly roll), I go from bottom to top, but do whatever's easiest for you.
• Cut the rolled dough in half, then in quarters. Now you should have 4 equal logs of dough. Cut each log into 3 equal pieces giving you 12 rolls.
• Place 6 rolls on lightly greased 9 x 13 inch pan (so you should have 2 pans of 6 rolls each).
• Cover pans with moist towel (any clean kitchen towel will do) and let rise in a warm place for another hour.
• At this point, you can also refrigerate (covered with plastic wrap) and keep for the next day- just take out of fridge at least 30-45 minutes before baking).
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Bake rolls for 15-20 minutes until they are lightly golden on top.
• While the rolls bake, prepare the icing by creaming the cream cheese along with the other ingredients using an electric mixer (I use hand mixer). Combine until smooth and creamy.
• When rolls are done, remove from oven and cool for about 4 minutes, then spread icing on top of rolls. Enjoy.
