Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

Yesterday, with all of the snow, I wanted to eat something ooey, gooey and warm. Cinnamon Rolls were the answer. Imagine sitting down in your jammies, under a blanket, with a gooey roll and a glass of milk watching the snow fall. Ahh - Heaven!

Cinnabon Cinnamon Rolls

1 pkg. active dry yeast
1 cup warm milk (105-110˚)
½ cup sugar
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1/3 cup butter, melted
4 cups all purpose flour

Filling:
1 cup brown sugar
2 ½ tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup butter, softened

Dissolve yeast in warm milk. Add sugar, salt, eggs, melted butter and flour. Mix well. Knead dough. Put in bowl, cover and let rise in warm place about 1 hour, until dough has doubled in size.

Roll dough out onto lightly floured surface. Roll out until dough is approximately 21 x 16” and ¼” thick.
Combine filling ingredients – cinnamon and sugar. Spread softened butter onto dough. Sprinkle cinnamon mixture evenly on top of butter.
Working from the top, roll dough down to bottom edge. Cut into 1 ¾” slices. Place on greased baking pan. Cover and let rise for 30 minutes.
Bake at 400˚ for 10minutes or until light brown. Frost when you pull out of oven.

Frosting:

8 TBSP butter, softened
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
¼ cup cream cheese, softened
½ tsp vanilla (or almond extract)
1/8 tsp salt

Combine all ingredients. Beat well. Spread onto freshly baked cinnamon rolls.
