Ingredients
- 1 package (1/4 oz) active dry yeast
- 1/4 cup warm water (110°F)
- 1/2 cup milk, warmed
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 egg
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a bowl, dissolve the yeast in warm water and let it sit for about 5 minutes until frothy.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the warm milk, sugar, melted butter, and egg. Add the yeast mixture and mix well.
- Gradually add flour and salt, mixing until a soft dough forms. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes until smooth and elastic.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Roll out the dough on a floured surface into a rectangle (about 12×8 inches).
- Spread softened butter over the dough, then sprinkle with cinnamon and brown sugar.
- Roll the dough tightly starting from the long edge and cut into 12 equal pieces.
- Place the rolls in a greased baking dish and let them rise again for 30 minutes.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until golden brown.
- For the icing, beat together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Drizzle over warm rolls.

Handy Tips
- Make sure the water is not too hot when dissolving the yeast, as it can kill the yeast.
