Steps:
- Warm milk in the microwave milk for 45-60 seconds. It should be warm but not hot to the touch (about 105 degrees F).
- Place milk into the bowl of your standing mixer, then add 1 TBS sugar and 1 TBS yeast to the warm milk. Stir and let it sit (proof) for five minutes or until it becomes foamy.
- Add the ½ cup sugar, butter, eggs, and vanilla to the mixture in the bowl of your standing mixer. Use a dough hook to stir until combined
- Add 4 cups flour, salt and cinnamon and stir the dough hook, starting on low and increasing to high.
- Knead dough in the standing mixer until a large ball is formed. The dough should be smooth and only slightly tacky to the touch. If the dough seems too sticky and is not forming a ball, add more flour 1 TBS at a time until a smooth ball is formed.
- Transfer dough to a floured surface and knead with your hands until it is smooth and elastic (about 3-5 minutes). Form it into a ball.
- Grease a large bowl and place the dough inside.
- Cover the bowl with a warm, damp towel and put the bowl in a warm place to rise.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place about 1 hour or until dough has doubled in size.
- While the dough is rising, make the filing. In a small bowl, combine butter, brown sugar and cinnamon until mixture is homogenous (uniform throughout). Set aside.
- Alternately, you can combine the cinnamon and sugar. Then melt the butter and brush it on the rolled dough, then sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on the butter-brushed dough. (I think this way is easier)!
- Assemble Cinnamon Rolls
- Sprinkle a large work surface with flour.
- Gently press the gas out of the dough and form it into a rectangle.
- Roll the dough into a 24x12" rectangle, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Spread the filling all over the dough using greased hands or a greased spatula. This process can seem difficult but it gets easier as you spread it. (Alternately: if you only combined the cinnamon and sugar, then melt the butter and use a pastry brush to spread the melted butter all over the dough. Then sprinkle the dough with cinnamon sugar and pat it down gently to insure it sticks).
- Roll up dough cut into 12 equal sized rolls (feel free to measure and cut each roll to be 2" long).
- Line a 9x13 inch glass baking dish with parchment paper and lightly grease. Then place rolls in 4 rows of three, evenly spaced.
- Cover and let rise until nearly doubled, about 30 minutes and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F
- Bake Cinnamon Rolls
- Once rolls are doubled in size, bake them in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 18-20 minutes. They will rise more in the oven. (NOTE: Check the center cinnamon rolls and make sure they are baked through. If your oven bakes cool or unevenly you may need to increase the baking time up to 10 minutes longer. If the top starts to brown before the center is baked, tent the baking pan with foil to prevent further browning).
- While rolls are baking, beat together cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and salt. Do NOT chill the frosting. Keep it at room temperature until the cinnamon rolls are baked.
- Once the cinnamon rolls have bene removed from the oven, spread the cream cheese frosting on them while they are still warm.
- Cool & Serve!
- Let cool and serve warm.

CINNAMON ROLLS WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
These delicious rolls are very easy to make because your bread machine does all of the hard work. They are best when served warm, and reheat well (if they last that long). Preparation time is approximate as "dough" cycle times vary with different bread machines.

Steps:
- 1. Measure into a mixing bowl: 1/2 C. warm water and add in 2 pkgs of active dry yeast. Stir until dissolved. Stir in 1 1/2 C. of lukewarm milk, 1/2 C. sugar, 2 tsp. salt, 2 eggs, 1/2 C. of room temperature butter. Mix with spoon and begin adding flour to handle easily (1 cup and then 1/2 cup at a time). Keep dough soft and almost sticky, just so you can handle it. This will keep the dough from ending up hard or tough. Mix by hand and then turn out on a floured counter top. Knead until smooth and elastic (about 5 min). Round up in a greased bowl, grease lightly on top and cover with plastic wrap. Let rise in a cold rise (4 hours @ 36-40 degrees or a warm rise at 75-85 degrees until double in size.
- 2. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to 18" x 24" wide (use a ruler because it is important to get it this size. Keep the corners as square as possible. The rolled out dough should resemble a 18x24" rectangle. Spread 1/2 pound of soft butter or margarine over the surface except for the bottom 1 " of dough. Spread the brown sugar mixture (2 C. brown sugar, 3 tbsp. cinnamon) over the butter and roll tightly from the top down towards yourself. It is very important that you roll it very evenly and tightly. Roll dough all the way down to the unbuttered seam. Measure and cut into 12 equal 2" wide rolls. Use a ruler to measure this in order to have them all cook evenly.
- 3. Line your 2 pans with parchment paper. Paper should hang over all side an inch or two. Place 6 rolls (2 rows of 3) into each of the 2- 12x8" high side pans. The pans must have high sides in order for the rolls to have something to adhere to while they bake. You can also use a 11x17" or 13x9" pan if a 12x8 " is not available.
- 4. Warm rise at 110 degrees(a warm oven with a pan of water), for 45 minutes or until the rolls fill the pans.
- 5. Preheat over to 310 degrees and bake for at least 15 minutes. Depending on your oven, you may need to make them up to 40 minutes. I have made this recipe in different kitchens and ovens vary so much that you will have to keep checking to make sure the center is done. The rolls will be golden brown on top, have a firm crust, and not sink down to the touch.
- 6. Frost with the cream cheese frosting when hot(4 ounces of cream cheese, 4 ounces of butter or margarine at room temperature, 2 cups of powdered sugar, 1/2 tsp vanilla, 1/4 tsp lemon extract. Cut between rolls in pan and allow to cool before removing.
- 7. These cinnamon rolls are time consuming to make, but your family will love you for it. I make these for breakfast on Christmas morning. What a delicious way to start your day!

- Set aside a 9 x 13 inch quarter sheet pan. Add warm water to a small bowl and sprinkle yeast over the top and set aside.
- Add milk and butter to a small saucepan and pop on a low heat, to warm the milk and melt the butter. Once the butter is melted, remove the milk from the heat.
- If the milk is hot to the touch, leave to cool for a minute or two. You want the milk to be warm but you should be able to stick your finger in there without it burning. Also check that your yeast has reacted and started to bubble a little on the edges.
- Add sugar and salt to a large mixing bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a dough hook. Add eggs and milk mixture. Slowly start to mix together using a dough hook. Add flour.

- Combine 2 cups of the flour and yeast in a large mixing bowl. In a saucepan, combine milk, butter, sugar, and salt over medium heat until temperature reaches 120 to 130°F (butter will be almost melted). Add milk mixture to flour mixture along with eggs and mix with an electric mixer on low for 30 seconds. Stir in as much of the flour as you can. (see note below for bread machine)
- Place dough a floured surface and knead in as much of the remaining flour as possible. Continue to knead the dough until it is very smooth and elastic (this will take about 5-10 minutes). Cover dough with oil or cooking spray and plastic wrap. Let rest covered for about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine brown sugar and cinnamon and set aside.
- Roll the dough into a 18x21-inch rectangle. Spread ⅓ cup butter on the dough and top with the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture.
- Starting with the long side, roll up dough so you have an 18" log. Cut into 12 even rolls. Grease a 9x13 pan and place the rolls in the pan. Cover with plastic wrap and a tea towel or kitchen towel and let rise until nearly doubled, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 400°F.
