Quick & Dangerously Delicious Cinnamon Rolls

DOUGH

• 1 cup warm milk

• 1 tbsp instant dry yeast

• 2 tbsp brown sugar

• 1 tsp fine sea salt

• 3 tbsp softened butter

• 1 large egg

• 3 cups all-purpose flour

• ⅔ cup heavy cream (for pouring over the rolls before baking)

FILLING

• 5 tbsp softened butter

• 1 cup brown sugar

• 2 tbsp ground cinnamon

CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

• 6 oz cream cheese, softened

• ¼ cup salted butter, softened

• 1 cup powdered sugar (use up to 1½ cups for thicker frosting)

• ½ tsp vanilla extract

• 1 tbsp heavy cream

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Add warm milk, yeast, and 2 tbsp brown sugar to the bowl of a stand mixer. Whisk and let sit for 6–8 minutes.

2. Add the egg, salt, and 3 tbsp softened butter. Whisk to combine, then add 3 cups flour.

3. Using the dough hook, knead on LOW for 2 minutes, then increase to medium-high and knead for another 5 minutes.

4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the dough rest for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 200°F.

5. Mix 1 cup brown sugar and 2 tbsp cinnamon together for the filling.

6. Lightly flour your counter and roll the dough into approximately a 12x18-inch rectangle, about ¼-inch thick.

7. Spread 5 tbsp softened butter over the dough, then evenly sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture.

8. Starting from the long side, tightly roll the dough into a log. Cut into rolls, about 2 inches thick.

9. Place the rolls in a lightly greased 9x13-inch baking dish and cover with plastic wrap.

10. Once the oven reaches 200°F, TURN THE OVEN OFF. Place the covered rolls inside the warm oven and let rise for 20 minutes.

11. Remove the rolls and plastic wrap. Set the oven to 375°F and allow it to preheat.

12. Once the oven is ready, pour ⅔ cup heavy cream evenly over the rolls.

13. Bake uncovered at 375°F for 18–20 minutes, until golden brown and the center rolls reach about 190–195°F internally.

14. For the frosting, beat the softened cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar, vanilla, and 1 tbsp heavy cream and beat until fluffy and smooth.

15. Let the cinnamon rolls cool for just 2–3 minutes, then spread that cream cheese frosting all over the warm rolls. 🤤
