Cinnamon Rolls

This is a popular recipe I like to use. Let me know if you like it at the end of this post.



Dough
1 (0.25-ounce) packet active dry yeast
 1 cup warm milk, (105°F to 115°F / 40°C to 45°C)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
4 cups all-purpose or bread flour 







Let sugar, milk & yeast sit until frothy
Let rise 1 hr, then pat down
add remaining ingredients.knead 5 min,




Roll dough to 21x16
Sprinkle 1c brown sugar, 1.5 tsp cinnamon
spread 1/3 cup softened butter
Roll tightly and pinch opening sealed
Mark into 12 rolls. Use floss to cut.
Lay into buttered pan,






Let rise until doubled
Bake 20 minutes at 400( I overcooked)
Top with cream cheese frosting (Noah did this part!)

Cream cheese frosting:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
4-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt

* problem solving: It is cold out so my dough was rising very slowly. I had to place the dough in a warm oven(off) covered with a damp towel in order to get it to rise.
