Cinnamon Rolls
Ingredients
Rolls:
- ½ recipe Basic Sweet Roll Dough
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- ½ cup sugar
- 2 tsp cinnamon
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tbsp margarine or butter, melted
- ¼ tsp vanilla
- 1–2 tbsp milk
Instructions
- Generously grease 13×9” pan.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 20″ x 12” rectangle. Spread with ¼ cup melted butter. In a small bowl, combine sugar and cinnamon; mix well. Sprinkle over dough.
- Starting with the 20” side, roll up jelly-roll fashion. Pinch edges firmly to seal seams. Cut into 20-1” slices. Place cut-side down in the greased pan.
- Cover. Let rise in a warm place (80–85°F) until light and doubled in size, 35–45 minutes.
- Heat oven to 375°F. Uncover dough. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until golden brown.
- Immediately remove from pan; place on wire rack. In a small bowl, blend all icing ingredients, adding enough milk for the desired drizzling consistency. Drizzle over warm rolls.
- Serve warm.
- After letting the dough rise once, refrigerate it overnight, covered with greased plastic wrap.
- In the morning, punch down the dough and let it rise again, then bake.
Notes
- Place ½–1” apart in pan to allow for rising.
