Directions Homemade Cinnamon Rolls
Directions
-
Heat milk, water, and 1/4 cup butter together in a saucepan over medium heat until bubbling, about 5 minutes. Let cool to 120 to 130 degrees F (49 to 54 degrees C), 1 to 2 minutes.
Mix flour, white sugar, salt, and yeast together in a separate bowl. Mix egg into warm milk mixture.
Pour milk mixture and 1/3 of the flour mixture into a mixing bowl, beat using an electric mixer until moistened. Add remaining dry ingredients slowly until a dough has pulled together. Knead on a lightly floured surface for 8 minutes. Place in a covered bowl and let rise in a dry, warm place until doubled in size, 1 to 2 hours.
Punch dough down. Roll on a lightly floured surface into a 16x12-inch rectangle. Spread 1/4 cup softened butter evenly over dough. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in small bowl and sprinkle evenly over dough. Roll up from the short side, cut into 12 even rolls.
Place rolls into a greased 9x13-inch glass baking dish. Cover and let rise in a dry, warm place, 8 hours, to overnight.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
Bake in the preheated oven until golden, about 17 minutes.
Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, 1 tablespoon butter, milk, and vanilla extract for icing using an electric mixer in a bowl until creamy, slowly mix in confectioners' sugar until smooth.
Remove cinnamon rolls from the oven and flip out onto a cooling rack, let cool slightly, 5 to 10 minutes, before covering in icing.
