Soft & Gooey Homemade Cinnamon Rolls

These cinnamon rolls are loaded with flavor and topped with a creamy frosting. Let’s dive right into the ingredients you’ll need for this delicious recipe!

Ingredients

4 cups all-purpose flour
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp) active dry yeast
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp ground cinnamon
1/2 cup packed brown sugar
For the frosting: 1 cup powdered sugar, 2 tbsp milk, and 1 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

In a small bowl, warm the milk until it’s warm but not hot. Stir in the yeast and let it sit for about 5 minutes until it becomes frothy. This ensures that the yeast is activated.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter, sugar, eggs, and salt. Once combined, add the frothy milk and yeast mixture.
Gradually mix in the flour until a dough begins to form. Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5-10 minutes until it’s smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it with a clean kitchen towel, and let it rise in a warm place for about 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
After the dough has risen, punch it down and roll it out into a rectangle, about ¼ inch thick. Spread melted butter evenly over the dough.
In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar and cinnamon together, then sprinkle this mixture over the buttered dough.
Starting from one edge, carefully roll the dough into a tight log. Cut it into 12 equal pieces and place them in a greased baking dish.
Cover the rolls and let them rise again for about 30 minutes, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bake the rolls for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. While they’re baking, whip up the frosting by mixing the powdered sugar, milk, and melted butter until smooth.
Once the rolls are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes before drizzling the frosting on top. Enjoy your soft and gooey homemade cinnamon rolls!

These cinnamon rolls not only taste divine but also fill your home with an amazing aroma that will bring everyone to the kitchen. Treat yourself and your loved ones to this delightful homemade treat!
