Homemade Cinnamon Rolls
I love making these. For some reason, seeing the dough rise and feeling it as I roll it out just makes me happy. My family has loved cinnamon rolls since the children were babies. I have tried several different recipes this is a totally different one all together. I used my hubby's grandmas roll recipe and adjusted it a little bit to make the cinnamon roll dough. I use brown sugar instead of white sugar for the filling. I think it gets a little caramelized while baking. My icing recipe is the same recipe I use for my frosted sugar cookies. I love spreading some on the rolls as soon as they come out of the oven and let it melt into the rolls. I think it makes them extra moist. These are perfect for a breakfast or a delicious snack.
See how moist they look?
Love that creamy center.
First heat your milk to 110 degrees and then add your yeast and sugar. Then start adding in your butter and egg.
Next up is adding in your flour.
Just getting the flour mixed in.
You want the dough to be pulling away from the sides of the bowl as it is mixing together.
Put into a greased bowl to rise. Cover with plastic wrap and place in a warm spot.
Love that dough all risen.
Spread the dough out and top with butter, brown sugar and cinnamon.
Cut into slices and add to your pan.
