Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: Place milk, water, melted butter, egg, bread flour, pudding mix, sugar, salt, and yeast into a bread machine in the order listed, or follow the order recommended by the manufacturer if different. Run Dough cycle. Remove dough from the machine after the cycle is done, about 90 minutes.

  2. When the dough is almost finished, start the filling: Mix brown sugar, pecans, and cinnamon together in a bowl until well combined. Butter a 9x13-inch baking pan.

  3. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and roll into a 17x10-inch rectangle. Spread 1/2 cup softened butter over the rectangle, then sprinkle brown sugar mixture over top.

  4. Beginning with the long side, roll dough over filling into a log; cut log into sixteen 1-inch slices. Place slices, cut-sides up, into the prepared pan. Let rise in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 45 minutes.

  5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  6. Bake rolls in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 10 minutes.

  7. While the rolls are cooling, make the frosting: Stir confectioners' sugar, softened butter, cream cheese, milk, and vanilla together in a bowl until well combined. Spread over warm rolls.

Cinnamon Rolls II

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Warm the milk in a small saucepan until it bubbles, then remove from heat. Mix in the butter; stir until melted. Add water and let cool until lukewarm.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the milk mixture, yeast, white sugar, salt, eggs and 2 cups flour; stir well to combine. Stir in the remaining flour, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition. When the dough has pulled together, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface and knead until smooth and elastic, about 8 minutes.

  3. Divide dough into two pieces. Roll each piece into a 12x9 inch rectangle. In a bowl, stir together the cinnamon and brown sugar. Spread each piece with half of the butter, half of the brown sugar and cinnamon mixture. Roll up dough, using a little water to seal the seam.

  4. Cut each roll into 12 slices using a very sharp knife or dental floss. Place rolls onto two 9x13 inch greased baking pans. Cover and let rise until almost doubled, about 1 hour. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  5. Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.

  6. To make frosting; combine confectioner's sugar, cream cheese, butter and vanilla. Add milk gradually until frosting reaches a spreading consistency. Spread over warm (but not hot) cinnamon rolls.

Easy Fluffy Eggnog Cinnamon Rolls.

Easy Fluffy Eggnog Cinnamon Rolls. - cinnamon rolls recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1. To make the dough. In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine 3 ½ cups flour, the yeast, brown sugar, and salt. Add the eggnog, eggs, vanilla, and butter. Using the dough hook, mix until the flour is completely incorporated, about 4-5 minutes. If the dough seems sticky, add the remaining ½ cup of flour a little at a time. It's better to have a stickier dough rather than a dry dough, so add flour 1 tablespoon at a time.

  2. 2. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let sit at room temperature for 1 hour or until the dough has doubled in size.

  3. 3. Meanwhile, make the filling. In a small bowl, combine the brown sugar, and cinnamon. Line a 9×13 inch baking dish with parchment.

  4. 4. Lightly dust your work surface with flour. Turn out the dough, punch it down, and roll it into a rectangle about 10 x 16 inches. Spread the softened butter evenly over the dough. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar, and then the white chocolate chips, evenly over the butter and lightly push into the butter. Starting with the long edge closest to you, carefully roll the dough into a log, keeping it fairly tight as you go. When you reach the edge, pinch along the edge to seal. Using a sharp knife, cut into 12-15 rolls. Place the rolls into the prepared baking dish. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise 20-30 minutes.

  5. 5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Bake the rolls for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.

  6. 6. Meanwhile, make the frosting. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggnog, melted white chocolate, and vanilla until combined. Add the powdered sugar and mix well. Spread the frosting onto the warm rolls. Serve and enjoy!

House Favorite Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting

House Favorite Cinnamon Rolls with Cream Cheese Frosting - cinnamon rolls recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the dough: Start by adding the water and yeast to a bowl. Melt the butter, whisk in the honey, then the egg and salt. Add your butter mixture to the bowl, and then measure in the flour. Mix with a wooden spoon until combined. It will be messy, sticky, and loose – that is correct.

  2. First rise: Cover loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel, and let her rest at room temperature for 1-2 hours until the dough ball has puffed up and roughly doubled in size. I often turn on my oven to 200 degrees and place the dough bowl in close proximity to the fan to speed this process up.

  3. Store in the fridge: Once the dough has doubled in size, gently reach in with your hand and pull the sticky dough from the edges of the bowl. This should somewhat deflate the dough – that’s great. Put the bowl in the fridge, covered with plastic wrap. It needs at least 3 hours in the fridge so the dough has time to chill and become easier to handle. Don’t try to work with it right after the first rise – chilling is necessary to make it workable. The dough can stay in the fridge for up to 5 days.

  4. Assemble the rolls: Remove the dough from the fridge and coat the outside lightly with flour. Roll your dough ball out to about a 9×13 rectangle. This dough doesn’t like to be over-handled, and you don’t want to have to add a lot of extra flour – so work with it right out of the fridge.

  5. Filling: Brush the rectangle with the melted butter and sprinkle with the sugars and cinnamon. You can use your hands to press it in and make sure it’s all evenly coated.

  6. Roll: Roll the dough up starting at the short side. Try not to over-handle the dough as it will become sticky. Once the log is rolled up, use floss or a very sharp knife to trim the uneven ends, and then cut the log into 8 equal rolls. Place the rolls in a 9-10 inch round baking dish or pie plate (another size could also work, I just like how they fit in a round pan with 7 around the outside and one in the center).

  7. Second rise: Preheat the oven to 200 degrees and then turn it off. Cover the pan loosely with plastic wrap or a damp towel and let the rolls rest in the turned-off oven for 45 minutes. They should fit a little more snugly together in the pan at this point. Cute! Take them out and turn the oven back on to 350 degrees. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes.

  8. Prep the cream cheese frosting: Use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Mix in the powdered sugar, vanilla, and a little bit of milk at a time until you get a smooth glaze; then continue to beat with the electric mixer until you have a light and fluffy frosting.

  9. Frost and enjoy: When they come out of the oven, give them a minute to cool. Then brush or spoon them with the frosting so it gets every crevice coated with gooey, drippy deliciousness. You can frost them again (second layer!) once they’ve cooled a bit more. Savor every warm, pillowy, glazed bite. YOU MADE THAT. Cinnamon roll bliss is yours!

Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

Best Homemade Cinnamon Rolls - cinnamon rolls recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the dough:

    Warm the milk for 15 to 30 seconds in the microwave, until it's slightly warm to the touch but not steaming. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook, combine the warm milk, yeast, and sugar. Let the mixture stand until foamy, about five minutes.

    Add the eggs, flour, and salt to the bowl and mix on medium speed until a sticky dough is formed. Beat in the butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, waiting until the butter is incorporated before adding the next batch. The butter needs to be very soft for this to work; if the butter isn't incorporating, knead each piece in your fingers until soft before adding it to the dough.

    Once all the butter is incorporated, knead the dough for 10 minutes on medium speed (or knead by hand).

    Make the dough:
  2. Rise overnight:

    Shape the dough into a ball, place in a large, lightly oiled bowl, and cover with plastic wrap. Let the dough rise in the refrigerator overnight, at least 8 hours. It will slowly double in size.

    Rise overnight:
  3. Cut and shape the rolls:

    In the morning, remove the dough from the refrigerator. The dough will be quite stiff and firm, but should roll easily. Dust your work surface and a rolling pin lightly with flour, and roll the dough out into a rectangle approximately 12x16 inches in size.

    Spread the dough with butter, leaving a 1-inch border on one of the shorter edges. Combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. Sprinkle the mixture over the butter in an even layer.

    Starting from the short edge (the one with butter all the way to the edge), roll the dough into a tight spiral. Pinch the spiral closed (the unbuttered edge should stick to the log of dough). Trim the ends if they are shaggy.

    Cut the roll in half crosswise to make 2 pieces. Cut each piece in half again to make 4, and each piece again to make a total of 8 rolls. Place the rolls in a greased 9x13-inch baking dish.

    Cut and shape the rolls:
  4. Cover the rolls with plastic wrap, and let them rise in a warm place for 30 to 90 minutes:

    Rising time will depend on the temperature in your kitchen. When ready, the rolls should be puffed and pillowy. They should be touching each other with very little space between each roll.

    Cover the rolls with plastic wrap, and let them rise in a warm place for 30 to 90 minutes:
  5. Bake the rolls:

    Bake the rolls for 20 to 25 minutes until they are golden on top and puffy. Remove from the oven and cool on a rack for 5 minutes before frosting.

    Bake the rolls:
  6. Make the frosting:

    While the rolls bake, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to beat the cream cheese and butter together until creamy. Add half of the powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of milk. Beat for 1 minute. Add the remaining sugar and vanilla, and beat for 1 additional minute. Add additional milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the frosting is as spreadable as you like.

  7. Serve warm:

    Frost the cinnamon rolls generously while they're still a bit warm. Serve immediately.

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls

Gluten-Free Cinnamon Rolls - cinnamon rolls recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Make the dough:

    Into a large bowl, add the lukewarm milk. (Make sure the milk is only heated between 89°F to 110°F.) Add 3 tablespoons sugar and the yeast over the milk and set aside until the mixture is bubbly, about 5 to 8 minutes.

    Whisk in the whole egg, egg yolk, melted butter, and vanilla to the yeast mixture.

    In another large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Add the flour mixture to the wet mixture and, using a spoon or spatula, stir until combined. The dough is loose and will look like a thick batter. Resist the urge to add more flour.

    Make the dough:
  2. Make the cinnamon filling:

    In a medium bowl, add the softened butter. If your kitchen is cold you might have to soften the butter in the microwave. Add the cinnamon, sugar, vanilla, and salt to the softened butter. Mix with a spoon or stiff spatula until completely smooth.

    Make the cinnamon filling:
  3. Press out the dough:

    Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and dust it with flour. Scoop the dough onto parchment. This dough is very sticky. Spray your hands with non-stick spray, then use your hands to gently press and spread the dough into a 10- x 15-inch rectangle.

    Press out the dough:
  4. Add the filling:

    Dollop the filling on to the dough by the spoonful and use the back of the spoon to spread it in an even layer to all four edges.

    Add the filling:
  5. Roll and chill the rolls:

    Start with the long side closest to you and use the parchment to roll the dough into a tight log, ending with the seam at the bottom. Place the parchment-wrapped log, still on the baking sheet, in the freezer for about 20 to 30 minutes to firm up.

    Roll and chill the rolls:
  6. Cut the rolls and let them rise:

    Remove from the freezer and discard the parchment. Slice the log into 12 rolls. Arrange the rolls cut side up in a greased 9-inch square or round cake pan. Cover with plastic wrap and let them rise in a warm place for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, until the rolls have softened and expanded.

    Cut the rolls and let them rise:
  7. Preheat the oven:

    Towards the end of the rise time, preheat the oven to 350°F degrees.

  8. Bake the rolls:

    Bake the rolls until they are light golden-brown and puffy, about 30 minutes.

  9. Make the frosting:

    In a medium bowl, combine the softened butter and cream cheese. Using a hand whisk or electric mixer, beat until completely smooth. Add the powdered sugar, heavy cream, vanilla, and salt and beat again until well incorporated.

  10. Serve warm:

    Allow baked rolls to cool 5 to 10 minutes before icing generously with the cream cheese frosting. Serve warm.
