Ingredients
  

For the Rolls

  • 2 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons instant yeast
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 1 large egg

For the Filling:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

For the Glaze:

  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ounces cream cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions
 

  • In a small saucepan, mix the milk, yeast, and sugar, and heat them until warm, but not boiling. Remove from heat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, and mix well. Add an egg and pour in the warm milk and watermixture. Stir until a soft dough forms.
  • Transfer the dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead for about 5 minutes, until the dough becomes smooth and elastic.
  • Place the dough in a greased bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Allow it to rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.

Prepare the Filling:

  • While the dough is rising, prepare the filling. In a small bowl, mix the softened butter, brown sugar, and ground cinnamon until well combined.
  • Once the dough has risen, punch it down to release any air bubbles. Roll it out into a rectangle shape, about ¼inch thick.
  • Spread the filling evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
  • . Starting from one of the longer sides, tightly roll the dough into a log shape. Pinch the seam to seal.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 9 or 12 equal-sized pieces.
  • Place the cinnamon rolls in a greased baking dish, leaving a little space between each roll. Cover with a kitchen towel and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
  • .Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • Bake the cinnamon rolls for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown

Prepare the Glaze:

  • While the cinnamon rolls are baking, prepare the glaze. In a small bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, soft cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth.
  • Once the cinnamon rolls are done baking, remove them from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the warm cinnamon rolls.
  • Cinnamon Roll Delight is now ready to be served. Enjoy!
